OKLAHOMA CITY, OK–FEBRUARY 16, 2026–A total of 25 training races, spread over two days, will take place Wednesday, Feb. 18 and Thursday, Feb. 19. There are a total of 198 horses entered for schooling races this week as trainers get their first-time starters prepared to run their first official races of their careers.

24 races are dedicated to the two-year-olds of this season, twelve on each day with a total of 191 juveniles. Six of those 191 horses passed through the sale ring last year for over six figures.

Sea Pearl, a full sister to last year’s All American Futurity-G1 winner King Of The Tide, sold for $425,000 and will start from the six hole in race seven. Clint Crawford will start the daughter of the Grade 1 sire Eye Am King for owners Chris and Melody Lykins.

The other six-figure juveniles to watch for include Encinas Legacy ($160,000), Pancho Bigotes ($150,000), Ladies Favorite ($120,000), Aj Beauty Rose ($115,000), and Dawg House ($100,000).
