The first contest at the Big A will come in the card's fifth race at 3:20 p.m. and also includes the day's feature, the fifth running of the $100,000 Haynesfield for New York-bred 4-year-olds and up, in Race 8 at 4:50 p.m. Mr. Buff, winner of three of his last four starts for trainer John Kimmel, is the 4-5 favorite in the six-horse field.

Action will return to Gulfstream for the $75,000 Any Limit for sophomore fillies going six furlongs with a 5:04 p.m. expected post. Coverage will then shift to the West Cost for the Grade 2, $200,000 Buena Vista at Santa Anita, where Jolie Olimpica will look to sustain her perfect 4-for-4 record and build off her North American debut with a win in the Grade 3 Las Cienegas on January 11 for Hall of Fame trainer Richard Mandella.

Oaklawn will also have a turn at a stakes with the broadcast's last live race, the $125,000 Downthedustyroad Breeders' for fillies and mares 3-years-old and up at 6:09 p.m. Bye Bye J, a two-time stakes winner, is the 5-2 favorite for the 11-horse field. Trained by Hall of Famer Steve Asmussen, she will be making her first start since May.
