Big things are planned in 2023 for the Crown Prep series, and each week you’ll find a full recap of the action right here in the Third Time Games community blog.
Let’s dive into the boxscore and see which stables earned the right to name next week’s Crown Prep races.

Crown Prep Sprint Series (Race 2)
Win: Baja | Place: Dorado | Show: W1lliam Travis
Baja came out fast and finished strong in a near wire-to-wire victory in Race 2 of this week’s Crown Prep Sprint Series.
The horse owned by Miami Nation showed off elite stamina by holding back a crowd of horses that continually put on pressure. The results aren’t surprising, as the victory was the 21st in a long storied career by the five-year-old stallion.
