“When we broke from the gate, I knew I had the horse and it was just a matter of getting the trip,” said winning rider Joseph Ramos. “It was just about how quick they would go the first half. I kept her in the clear, but I also did not want to lose ground. I knew I had the horse, it was just about the trip and staying clear, so we could get there on time. I had to be patient and trust my filly. She was awesome today.”

Trainer Henry Walters was happy to get him over the $1 million mark.
“He has been on the cusp of it for the last couple of races, so I am glad he got it done,” said winning trainer Henry Walters. “I was nervous. They were strung out pretty good and I was just hoping he would kick it in and he did. He recovers pretty quickly, so we will point for his next start to be Laurel in a few weeks.”

Whitten Way scores in White Clay Creek Stakes
Wilmington, Del., October 3, 2026 — Eagle Up III, London Reid Thoroughbreds and Non Stop Stable’s Whitten Way persevered to score her second career stake victory in the $160,000 White Clay Creek Stakes at Delaware Park today.

Whitten Way returned $15.20 as the third choice in the field of seven.

“This family is just incredible, they keep producing,” said winning trainer Gary Capuano. “Stretching out is the big thing. She trained really well coming into this race. She had a nice mile workout and I knew she was fit, so it was just a matter of getting the right kind of trip. We will likely point for a race in Maryland for her next start.”
