Beau Recall won't enter BC Mile, points to Matriarch Stakes
Emily Shields Beau Recall, ridden by Manny Franco, pulls away from Newspaperofrecord to win the Grade 2 Distaff Turf Mile.
Trainer Brad Cox said Sunday that the mare Beau Recall wouldn’t be entered Monday in the Breeders’ Cup Mile.
Beau Recall, most recently a fine second in the First Lady Stakes at Keeneland, was part of the main body of the Mile when pre-entries were released last week, and her defection allows Casa Creed, who was the first pre-entered horse not selected into the race, to get into the Mile. Trainer Bill Mott said Sunday that Casa Creed would be entered.
Cox said Beau Recall is being pointed to the Matriarch Stakes rather than the BC Mile.
