ARCADIA, Calif. (AP) — Alphie’s Bet won the $150,000 Sham Stakes by 214 lengths, helping the 3-year-old colt establish his credentials for the Kentucky Derby.

Ridden by Alex Solis, Alphie’s Bet ran 1 1-8 miles in 1:48.72 at Santa Anita on Saturday.

Setsuko was second and The Program, trained by Hall of Famer Bob Baffert, was third in the field of 10 colts.

The race was postponed a week because of continued drainage problems with Santa Anita’s synthetic Pro-Ride surface.
