NOTES: Three of the last four Boeing winners also captured the Emerald Distaff: Lady Rosberg (2015), Stopshoppingdebbie (2014) and Class Included (2012). . .Today’s 12-horse field is largest in the history of the Boeing Stakes, topping the 11-horse field in the inaugural running in 1996. . .The older filly and mare division has yielded two different winners to date with Estellara prevailing by a head over Ethan’s Baby in the six-furlong Hastings Stakes and 3-year-old B C Z Middleton reeling in Ethan’s Baby for a three-quarter-length triumph in the 6 ½-furlong Washington State Legislators Stakes. . .B C Z Middleton (pictured) bids to become the first 3-year-old to win the race.
