The 1/ST RACING Tour is a connected series providing fans with over sixty stakes races, exciting coast-to-coast Pick 5 wagers, handicapping contests, and incentive opportunities for owners and trainers.

“We’re excited to highlight the fillies on the Road to the Kentucky Oaks and Black-Eyed Susan with the support of Fasig-Tipton, a longstanding partner of 1/ST. We look forward to launching this new initiative together,” said Aidan Butler, President, 1/ST

“Fasig-Tipton is proud to partner with 1/ST to sponsor the 3-Year-Old Filly Series at Gulfstream Park and Santa Anita Park on the road to the Kentucky Oaks,” said Fasig-Tipton President Boyd Browning. “Many of the sport’s top female racehorses have made their first steps towards greatness during these prestigious races. Fasig-Tipton prides itself on having sold many of the great female champions in American racing – at both the beginning of their careers as yearlings and two-year-olds, as well as at the conclusion of their racing days at our marquee November Sale. We are pleased to further our association with top racing females through the sponsorship of these important series coast-to-coast.”
