D.J. Stable and Robert Cotran’s Hades, winner of the Holy Bull (G3) in February at Gulfstream Park, headlines a field of 10 3-year-olds entered for next Saturday’s 42nd running of the $400,000 Stonestreet Lexington (G3) going 1 1/16 miles on the main track.

The Stonestreet Lexington will go as the 10th race on the 11-race program with a 5:48 p.m. ET post time.

The Stonestreet Lexington is the final race on the Road to the Kentucky Derby and offers 42 points on a 20-10-6-4-2 scale to the first- through fifth-place finishers. The Kentucky Derby is limited to the top 20 point earners and invitees.

Another Grade 3 winner in the gate will be Stephen and Evan Ferrado’s Liberal Arts.
