Edit: they're both entered MTO
Absolutely shocking to me that Chad Brown of all people entered a MTO horse. Based on the works I have seen from Chrome's brother, he did not exactly seem speedy out of the gate, so guess they were wanting a longer race that would suit a galloper a bit more, and this is the only way to get it on the dirt at this time of the year.
At any rate, the race came off turf and both colts are set to run.
Also in the race is, Acre (Blame-Greenery), a 1/2 brother to Lea.

2yo filly Sharing (Speightstown-Shared Account) broke her maiden by 6 1/4 lengths today in R3 at Saratoga. The race was originally carded for 8.5f on the turf but came off and was run at 7 furlongs on the dirt instead.

aww, I haven't seen any still photos of him as an adult but he certainly seems to have grown up handsome (and tall) from what I've seen of his replays.

He definitely looks big! I haven’t seen him since he was a yearling. His mom Mayo was very sweet

Did Saratoga not run the hurdle stake today? It was supposed to be the 1st race but, when I checked DRF Results to see how Sportswear did, the Results start with Race 2. Nothing for Race 1. :?

It looks like they did cancel, due to weather (per Xpressbet).

Is she the first foal? I can remember when Warren's Veneda was still racing, it doesn't seem all that long ago! :?

Yes. Her last race was in December 2015.
