Subtle Aly, ridden by Edgar Prado and trained by Rick Dutrow Jr., captured the first stakes race of the meet Wednesday, winning the Schuylerville Stakes by a nose over I Promise.
Prado won three races on the 10-race card to take the early lead in the rider standings.
30,052 people came out Wednesday for opening day, helping to set an on-track handle record of $3,825,564. Also, one person hit the Pick Six Wednesday and picked up a nice $57,228 for their efforts.
Massoud, who fell in the stretch while leading the first race, had to be euthanized, but her jockey, John Velazquez, avoided serious injury.
Tomorrow the juvenile boys take center stage in the Sanford Stakes.
