Belmont Park hosted a pair of Grade 1 events for juveniles on Saturday, and, befitting the stature of the events, both were won by promising runners who are stars on the rise. Union Rags overcame an eventful trip to win by better than five lengths going away in the Champagne, contested for the 141st time Saturday. A little earlier, My Miss Aurelia drew off to a dominant win in the Frizette for fillies.

Both 2-year-olds are now 3-for-3 lifetime, including graded wins this past summer at Saratoga. My Miss Aurelia was victorious in the Grade 2 Adirondack, while Union Rags won the Grade 2 Saratoga Special a day later.
