Dea Matrona stretches out in wide-open turf route; $54,223 pick six carryover
A 5-year-old mare, Dea Matrona has been claimed in her last three races, all at a mile on turf, and starts for the first time for trainer Peter Eurton in an allowance race for fillies and mares at 1 1/4 miles on grass Friday at Santa Anita. How she h...
Keeneland
A cutback in distance will benefit Beautiful War
A trainer unwilling to adjust their priors is a trainer who won't get the most out of their stock, and after a fourth straight middling finish in a first-level turf route allowance for Beautiful War, trainer David Fawkes shook things up. He cut him b...

Mansetti looks to end win drought in allowance
Mansetti, last year's King's Plate winner, will try to end his slump in Friday's featured conditioned allowance over seven furlongs at Woodbine.

Finding Strength gets belated start to 3-year-old season
Finding Strength, among the leaders of the local juvenile fillies division a year ago, will finally return to launch her 3-year-old campaign Friday at Gulfstream Park as one of the leading contenders in an intriguing $54,000 allowance race to be deci...
Belmont Park
Papa Yo gets class relief while running in same company
Technically, Papa Yo is not taking a drop in class when he runs in a first-level allowance Friday at Belmont Park. But the company he faces in this race doesn't look as daunting as the two horses he finished behind last month at Saratoga.
Santa Anita

Sorrento Sky will be supplemented to the Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint for $200,000, while Repo Man and Ag Bullet will not start in Breeders’ Cup races at Keeneland later this month.
Belmont Park
Disco Time eyes Cigar Mile after strong comeback win
Disco Time has run well enough to win a Grade 1 stakes race, he just hasn’t done it yet. A sterling effort in allowance company at Belmont Park on Wednesday indicated there is still time to achieve that goal.
Belmont Park
Ted Noffey possible for Dwyer
Ted Noffey, last year’s 2-year-old champion male, was expected to make his 3-year-old debut in Saturday’s Perryville Stakes at Keeneland. But trainer Todd Pletcher apparently was not completely satisfied with the colt’s five-furlong workout in 1:01.9...

Breeders' Cup 2026

Breeders' Cup Classic: Sovereignty keeps up the work, though not particularly fast
Breeders' Cup Classic: Sovereignty keeps up the work, though not particularly fast
Despite two workouts that are slower than what he's typically done in his career, Sovereignty remains on course to start in the $7 million Breeders' Cup Classic, trainer Bill Mott said this week.
Breeders' Cup Sprint: Built aims to give Catalano another upset winner
Despite rather impressive credentials, Built, like the majority of the others expected to contest the Sprint, finds himself taking a back seat in the lead-up to the race behind the freakishly fast 3-year-old Englishman and Japanese invader T O Elvis.
Breeders' Cup Juvenile: Coach Pope figures to get plenty of local support
A recently released pre-season poll has the University of Kentucky men's basketball team, coached by Mark Pope, ranked seventh of 16 teams in the highly competitive Southeastern Conference. The 2-year-old colt Coach Pope, named for the UK hoops coach...
Breeders' Cup Mile: Deterministic seeks to turn tables on Notable Speech
Round 2 comes around two turns, not one, and the connections of Deterministic hope that he can reverse the one-two finish Sept. 12 in the Woodbine Mile.
Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Turf: Classic Q likely to stretch out, stay with females
The Mark Casse-trained Classic Q is the highest-rated older female turf miler in North America this year. Classic Q might be cross-entered in the Breeders' Cup Mile, but her connections plan to run her in the Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Turf.
Breeders’ Cup Turf: Burnham Square could get preferred conditions
Burnham Square in his last three races eked out a win in the listed Chorleywood Stakes, ran hard to defeat modest competition in the Arlington Million, and finished seventh in the Kentucky Turf Cup. It’s Burnham Square’s performance five races ago th...
Breeders' Cup Distaff: Super Corredora working her way toward trip
Super Corredora must clear several hurdles to convince John Sadler she's ready to ship to Keeneland for the Breeders' Cup Distaff, but the 3-year-old filly has not let him down so far. With a recent victory in the Grade 2 Zenyatta and several encoura...
Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint: Doncho on long line for spot in the field
The Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint is shaping up to be one of the toughest tickets at the championship event this year, with about 25 horses vying for a spot in the starting gate at Keeneland. Doncho is one of many stakes winners who would fit in the fiel...
