No question, tonight is going to be a spectacular night of racing at The Downs at Mohegan Sun Pocono. All the stars will be going all out—but what will that mean in terms of track and even world records? With temperatures forecast in the 90s, and a track that will most certainly be FAST, the stage could be set for some impressive, even record-setting numbers. But who will tonight's superstars need to beat?

Says Jay Bergman: "Such is the case in the last of three Earl Beal Jr. Memorial elimination races this Saturday. The highlight of course is the undefeated Manchego putting her record on the line and facing all boys for the very first time. “This is definitely the best field she’s ever faced, “said Jimmy Takter, her trainer. “You have a Breeders Crown winner (Fiftydallarbill), a Horse of the Year (Fourth Dimension) and Canada’s Horse of the Year (Alarm Detector) in the field."
