The FrontRunner and Awesome Again Stakes might be back-to-back features at Santa Anita tonight (post times at 6:04pm and 6:37pm EST, respectively), but the contenders in each race couldn't be more different. The FrontRunner is one of the earlier serious Kentucky Derby prep races (as well as a prep for the Breeders' Cup Sentient Jet Juvenile), whereas the Awesome Again Stakes is a prep for the Breeders' Cup Classic. Basically, the FrontRunner contenders are Class of 2018 and the Awesome Again contenders are largely from the Class of 2014.
All that said, due to time constraints, I'm only going to seriously evaluate the contenders for the FrontRunner, although I will give my general thoughts on the Awesome Again before post. More info after the jump!
