Several barns that have had solid success with 2-year-olds this year unveil more of their respective arsenals in a $120,000 maiden special weight for 2-year-old fillies going 6 1/2 furlongs on Thursday at Churchill Downs.
Cherie DeVaux has already unleashed the classy Englishman, a 7 1/4-length maiden winner last Friday at this meet, and has well-bred runners in the barn. These include Saratoga maiden winner Dr. Agne, out of champion Lady Eli, and the still-developing Nymue, out of champion Zenyatta.
OZONE PARK, N.Y. – Crazy Mason, who won the Grade 2 Carter in April, heads a field of nine entered in Saturday’s Grade 3, $200,000 Vosburgh Stakes at seven furlongs.
The Carter was one of three straight wins Crazy Mason put together at Aqueduct during the winter and spring. Since the Carter, Crazy Mason has finished third in both the Grade 3 True North and Grade 1 Forego at Saratoga and made a trip to Del Mar where he finished sixth in the Grade 1 Bing Crosby in July.
OZONE PARK, N.Y. – Two-time Breeders’ Cup Turf winner Rebel’s Romance, his Grade 1-winning Godolphin stablemate El Cordobes, and multiple Grade 1 winner Far Bridge head a field of five entered in Saturday’s Grade 1, $500,000 Joe Hirsch Turf Classic.
Rebel’s Romance, a winner of 19 of 28 races, including the Group 1 Preis von Berlin in Germany in his last start, and El Cordobes, winner of the Grade 1 Sword Dancer last month, both stretched their legs Monday morning over the Oklahoma turf course in Saratoga.
CYPRESS, Calif. – Kazushi Kimura won the 1,000th race of his career in North America at Los Alamitos on Saturday and immediately declared a goal for his next milestone – winning the riding title at the upcoming Santa Anita autumn meeting.
Kimura, a former champion jockey in Canada, faces a tough task of winning the most races at the 16-day Santa Anita autumn meeting. He will attempt to surpass Juan Hernandez, who has been the dominant rider on the circuit in the last three years.
ARCADIA, Calif. – Atitlan, a two-time graded stakes winner on turf earlier this year, is out of training because of an injury. The setback takes the 4-year-old colt out of consideration for Saturday’s Grade 2 John Henry Turf Championship at Santa Anita.
“He has a little injury and it will prevent him from racing,” trainer John Shirreffs said. “He’ll go to Kentucky and he’ll get a little rest. It could be four-week thing or it could be two months."
OZONE PARK, N.Y. – When it comes to Phileas Fogg, trainer Gustavo Rodriguez has decided there’s no place like home.
Thus, instead of waiting for a race out of town next month, Rodriguez and owner Steve Shapiro have opted to supplement Phileas Fogg in Saturday’s Grade 2, $300,000 Woodward Stakes at Aqueduct for a fee of $1,500.
Although she had never been worse than second in her career, questions swirled around Immersive entering Saturday’s Seneca Overnight at Churchill Downs. Her trainer, Brad Cox, said earlier in the week that her connections had to learn if Immersive was still “wanting to be a racehorse at the top level.”
As the final week of the Churchill Downs September stand begins Wednesday, several familiar stakes-class horses show up in the feature, a $148,000 allowance/optional-claiming race for 3-year-olds and up who have not won twice other-than since July 14, 2024.
Brian Hernandez Jr. sustained rib fractures and multiple internal injuries in a fall Sunday at Churchill Downs, putting his fall season in jeopardy.
Hernandez was aboard Sgt. Garcia in Sunday’s third race, a maiden claimer for 2-year-olds. The Kenny McPeek trainee suffered a foreleg injury near the five-sixteenths pole, dislodging the rider.
