LOUISVILLE, Ky. – The high-stakes trip lasted just more than a minute, but Hall of Fame rider Javier Castellano said he “enjoyed the ride.”   And why not enjoy it? Bulletin broke like a shot, skipped along the turf in the middle stages, and then gamely turned back Chelsea Cloisters for a 2 3/4-length win in the inaugural $1 million Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint on Friday at Churchill Downs. "He broke like a shot," Castellano said. "I preferred to break that way. You don't see too many horses beat the gate the way he did. I think it was an important skill [to help] him win the race. And then after that, I enjoyed the ride. You can see him flipping his ears back and forth." Bulletin ($10.60), from the penultimate crop of the versatile City Zip, was bred in Kentucky by CresRan LLC. The colt was a $250,000 purchase by China Horse Club and Maverick Racing, a moniker of WinStar Farm, at last year's Keeneland September yearling sale, with SF Racing also now involved in the ownership. A big Breeders' Cup weekend just adds icing on the cake for this team, which also headed up the ownership partnership on Triple Crown winner Justify this spring. Bulletin was making just his second career start in the Juvenile Turf Sprint. The colt debuted in the Hollywood Beach Stakes on Sept. 29 on the Gulfstream Park turf, and drove to a win on the lead by seven lengths. “He is excellent,” trainer Todd Pletcher said earlier this week. “I was very impressed with his first start ... He is giving up a little bit in terms of experience but hopefully not in terms of talent." :: Visit our Breeders' Cup one-stop shop for PPs, Clocker Reports, and more Bulletin was reluctant to load, but when the gates opened for the Juvenile Turf Sprint, he was away to clear the field by more than a length in the first two jumps under Castellano, who had taken over the mount for Eric Cancel. The globe-trotting Chelsea Cloisters, who was Group 3-placed in France over the summer, was away well to track Bulletin off his hip through an opening quarter-mile in 23.19 seconds. The multiple group stakes winner Soldier's Call, sent away as the favorite off a stellar Group 1 placing against older horses in France, broke a bit slowly but was quickly up to track in the second flight along the inside, along with Indian Summer Stakes winner Strike Silver and multiple synthetic stakes winner Big Drink of Water. Castellano kept Bulletin well off the hedge as the field spun into the lane, through the half in 46.89, and Chelsea Cloisters pulled her way up alongside to challenge. But Bulletin found another gear and kicked away in the final furlong, drawing away to his final margin. Bulletin stopped the clock in 1:05.54 for the 5 1/2 furlongs on a turf course officially rated good after rain in Louisville on Wednesday and Thursday. Chelsea Cloisters held second by a length over So Perfect, who edged Queen Bermuda by three-quarters of a length for third. "She broke sharply and put herself where she needed to be," Tyler Gaffalione, aboard Chelsea Cloisters, said. "I thought we had the horse in front of us, but when Javier got into him, he had something left. My filly ran huge.” After the top four came Big Drink of Water – who was the also-eligible allowed into the race when Shang Shang Shang scratched due to the soft ground Friday morning – and then Soldier's Call. They were followed, in order, by Strike Silver, Sergei Prokofiev, Pocket Dynamo, Stillwater Cove, Well Done Fox, and Moonlight Romance. "What are you going to do?" said Wesley Ward, who trains Chelsea Cloisters, Stillwater Cove, Moonlight Romance, and Shang Shang Shang. "We got beat by the king. Stillwater Cove got stuck in boggy conditions and Moonlight Romance got stuck in a tight going on the turn. But we ran second for my great friend Gatewood Bell, so that is fantastic. We knew going in that the turf would be really, really soft and it was but there is nothing you can do about that." As for the winner, Elliott Walden of WinStar Farm said the ownership team has not yet decided what might be next for Bulletin, but mentioned the renowned Royal Ascot meeting next June in England as one long-range goal. "We're always looking for the classics," Walden said. "I don't know what we'll do with this horse, Bulletin. It's the first time we've been in a situation to win a grass race like this with a 2-year-old, so I'm just going to enjoy today, and we'll figure that out later. But I think City Zips are good on the grass, so I don't know what Todd will figure out, but we'll huddle up and figure it out. The one thing I thought about is, how impressive would he be at Royal Ascot next year? We've tried that the past two years with a couple horses. Mr. Teo is a great sportsman and loves to run at Royal Ascot as well. So, that might be in his future as well."
