Adare Manor, California’s leading older female, will not start in Saturday’s Grade 1 Pacific Classic at Del Mar after tying up after training on Thursday, trainer Bob Baffert said. Adare Manor was the 9-5 favorite on the morning line to win the $1 million Pacific Classic. “Adare Manor tied up a little bit after her gallop,” Baffert said. “I don’t feel she’s 100 percent. She can’t be off of her game. “We’re going to sit this one out.” :: DRF's Del Mar Handicapping Packages: Get everything you need to play the races with confidence.
