Coinage scores in the With Anticipation Stakes at Saratoga Race Course

Juveniles take center stage Sept. 26 at Monmouth Park with a pair of stakes races on the final day of the 55-day meet, which concludes with a 14-race card.

The $500,000 Nownownow Stakes is at a mile on the grass, while the $100,000 Smoke Glacken Stakes is over six furlongs on the main track.

Monmouth Park increased the purse of the Nownownow Stakes from $150,000 to $500,000 in an effort to lure potential Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Presented by Coolmore America (G1T) looking for one last prep. 

D. J. Stable, Chester Broman Sr., and Mary Broman's Coinage , coming off a win in the Sept. 1 With Anticipation Stakes (G3T) at Saratoga Race Course for trainer Mark Casse, is the 7-2 morning-line favorite in a 10-horse field in the Nownownow, which includes first-out winner Dakota Gold . The New York-bred won his debut for trainer Danny Gargan by 4 1/2 lengths against open maiden special weight company Sept. 2 on dirt at Saratoga.

Midnight Chrome , Grooms All Bizness , and There Are No Words  come into the race after breaking their maiden on the grass at Monmouth Park in their last start.

Cash is King and LC Racing's Practical Coach , a first-out winner at Parx Racing Aug. 25 at six furlongs, faces Swift Tap  and six other 2-year-olds for the Smoke Glacken Stakes.
