Guarana, Rushing Fall will return to Kentucky for Breeders' Cup

Guarana and Rushing Fall, whose Saturday scores as odds-on favorites at Keeneland gave Chad Brown the 100th and 101st Grade 1 victories of his illustrious career, both were flown Monday to Saratoga as Brown considers the best paths to return to Kentucky for their Breeders’ Cup races on Nov. 7.
Guarana won the seven-furlong Madison when re-rallying under Jose Ortiz. Some 90 minutes later, Rushing Fall edged away late under Javier Castellano to win the Jenny Wiley at 1 1/16 miles on turf.

Guarana will be targeted for the BC Filly and Mare Sprint, perhaps with the Aug. 8 Ballerina at Saratoga as an interim race, while Brown said he will “work backward” from the BC Mile or BC Filly and Mare Turf with Rushing Fall.
