ELMONT, N.Y. – The tasks couldn’t be any more different for trainer Todd Pletcher as he prepares two horses for the $5 million Breeders’ Cup Classic on Nov. 2 at Santa Anita.

In Graydar, Pletcher has a horse who has never run beyond 1 1/8 miles and has raced just once in seven months.

In Palace Malice, Pletcher has a horse who has won at 1 1/2 miles – a quarter-mile farther than the Classic distance – and already has made nine starts this year.

On Sunday, Pletcher put both horses through significant workouts over the Belmont training track.

ARCADIA, Calif. – Reneesgotzip, the winner of the Grade 3 Rancho Bernardo Stakes at Del Mar in August, will be ridden by Edwin Maldonado in a Breeders’ Cup sprint race Nov. 2, trainer Peter Miller said Sunday.

Reneesgotzip was ridden by Garrett Gomez when she won the Rancho Bernardo, but Gomez is not currently riding. Gomez informed his agent, Tony Matos, on Oct. 10 that he intended to stop riding. Gomez has not had a presence in Southern California racing in recent weeks. He has not returned phone calls seeking comment.

ELMONT, N.Y. – It was another busy morning for Breeders’ Cup hopefuls in New York on Sunday, and a very busy morning for jockey John Velazquez. Velazquez was aboard four of the Cup contenders to work here Sunday, including three within about a 45-minute span after the renovation break.

Sunday also proved to be a busy and productive morning for trainer Chad Brown, who sent out eight likely Breeders’ Cup starters to work. Seven of those works came over the turf, the eighth by Summer Applause, who got the day started with an encouraging drill over the main track shortly after dawn.

ELMONT, N.Y. – Trainer Chad Brown plans to bring an army of turf horses to this year’s Breeders’ Cup, a group that includes the 3-year-old filly Alterite, the winner of the Grade 1 Garden City Stakes, who Brown said Sunday would be supplemented to the Breeders’ Cup Filly and Mare Turf by owner Martin Schwartz.

On Sunday, seven of Brown’s Breeders’ Cup turf hopefuls put in workouts over the Belmont Park turf course, with Real Solution (Turf), Bobby’s Kitten (Juvenile Turf), and Kitten Kaboodle (Juvenile Fillies Turf) standing out.

Joel Rosario on Sunday was announced as the rider on Flat Out for the $5 million Breeders’ Cup Classic on Nov. 2 at Santa Anita, a development that had been hinted at days earlier.

Ron Anderson, Rosario’s agent, said the jockey was thrilled to get back on the horse. Rosario and Flat Out teamed to finish third behind Fort Larned and Mucho Macho Man in last year’s Classic.

In honor of the 30th running of the Breeders’ Cup World Championships, NBC Sports Network will televise on Saturday “Daily Racing Form Presents Breeders’ Cup 30-1: Greatest Moments in Breeders’ Cup History.”

The one hour telecast (5:30-6:30 p.m. ET/2:30 p.m.-3:30 p.m. PT) captures the indelible accomplishments of the horses and individuals who graced the Breeders’ Cup with the greatest drama and excitement since the event’s inception in 1984.

ARCADIA, Calif. – The European Group 1 winners Flintshire and Winsili will not start in Breeders’ Cup races Nov. 2, the racing manager of Juddmonte Farms said in an e-mail Saturday.

Teddy Grimthorpe did not indicate a reason, saying they would not be traveling to California. Flintshire was a candidate for the $3 million BC Turf, while Winsili was being considered for the $2 million BC Filly and Mare Turf.

ELMONT, N.Y. – As far as the Daily Racing Form clocker report is concerned, the path to the Breeders’ Cup at Santa Anita Park once again begins 3,000 miles away at Belmont Park, where the majority of the New York-based trainers will complete preparations for their Cup-bound runners prior to putting them on their flights to California less than a week before the big event.

ELMONT, N.Y. – Owner Ed Stanco completed his 180-degree odyssey to the Breeders’ Cup, and now his sensational 3-year-old filly, Princess of Sylmar, will travel 3,000 miles to compete in the $2 million Distaff on Nov. 1 at Santa Anita.

Stanco and trainer Todd Pletcher confirmed Princess of Sylmar for the Distaff following her half-mile breeze in 48.42 seconds Saturday over the Belmont Park training track.

“We’re going,” said Stanco, adding that Pletcher described the work to him in one word: “excellent.”

LEXINGTON, Ky. – Sum of the Parts was a 3-year-old who ran a decent fourth at 29-1 last year in the Breeders’ Cup Sprint. Whether or not his odds are shorter when the Sprint is renewed Nov. 2 at Santa Anita, Tom Amoss likes his chances.

“He’s coming up to it the right way, and I think he’s got a right to improve off his last race,” Amoss said after Sum of the Parts breezed an easy half-mile Saturday in 50.80 seconds over the Polytrack surface at Keeneland. “This move was very similar to what he did here before the Phoenix.”
