As noted in an earlier DRF Live post by Marcus Hersh, the Arlington Park turf course has been upgraded from yielding to good for the sensational 12-race card that starts at 12:15 Central. And Poly is Poly.

Worth noting:

- The charter flight carrying the New York jockeys (and Chad Brown and a few others) is scheduled to touch down in the area around noon Central. The first of 5 straight stakes that end the card doesn't even go until 4:08, so yeah, hopefully everything goes smoothly there.

- There are guaranteed pools on several multi-race wagers involving the stakes: $150k pick-5 (R8-12), $300k pick-4 (R9-12), and $100k pick-3 (R9-11).

- Live television coverage of the Beverly D. (R10) and Million is available on a 90-minute show (5-6:30 CT) on NBCSN.

- The Million (R11) is down to nine starters with the early scratches of SPRING QUALITY (2) and DIVISIDERO (4).

Here are the early SCR as of 11:15 CT: R5-(7, 13, 14); R7-(13, 14); R11-(2, 4); R12-(5).
