2015 Champagne Stakes Race Favorite Entries

Ralis 3-1 - impressive Doug O'Neill trained colt has five career starts with two wins and a second place finish. He enters off an easy 5 3/4 length win at 7-1 odds in the Grade 1 Hopeful Stakes at Saratoga September 7, a second in the minor Graduation Stakes at Del Mar August 5 and an uncharacteristic fifth in the minor Summer Juvenile Championship at Los Alamitos in July. Ralis seems to be peeking at just the right time. He departs from post 5 with Javier Castellano in the reins of the morning line favorite hoping to make it two straight graded stakes scores.

Tale of S'avall 7-2 - will make just his second career start for trainer Barclay Tagg - the first being a maiden score by two lengths at Saratoga August 29. He hopes to make it two in a row to start his career when he leaves from post 7 with Cornelio Velasquez in the irons.
