America’s Best Racing has compiled a slideshow with photos of the talented cast runners entered for the $1 million Whitney Stakes Saturday, Aug. 8, at Saratoga Race Course. The Whitney is a Breeders’ Cup “Win and You’re In” Challenge Series race for the $7 million Longines Breeders' Cup Classic Oct. 31 at Keeneland Race Course, and the 1 1/8-mile race for 3-year-olds and older drew one of the best fields seen this year with 2025 Horse of the Year Sovereignty, 2025 champion 3-year-old filly Nitrogen, and 2026 Dubai World Cup winner Magnitude among the eight horses entered.

Let’s take a closer look at the 2026 Whitney Stakes entrants with a nice profile image, workout image, and racing image when available. The runners appear in the slideshow in the post-position order listed below.
