WinStar Farm's program for fans, StableMates, has launched a new contest. Called PowerFecta, the free contest challenges fans to pick the exact order of finish for every horse running in Saturday's Belmont Stakes.

LEXINGTON, Ky. – Lilacs and Lace, winner of the Ashland, has been sold privately to a Japanese breeder and is in foal to Henrythenavigator, according to members of the partnership that raced her.

LEXINGTON, Ky. – Eight Belles Stakes winner Victoria’s Wildcat has a new majority owner. Andrew Rosen privately purchased a controlling interest in Victoria’s Wildcat, a 3-year-old daughter ofBellamy Road, just days before she is scheduled to start in Belmont’s Acorn Stakes, her first Grade 1 race. Bloodstock agents John Stuart and Chris Brothers brokered the deal, but did not disclose Rosen’s exact percentage.

ETOBICOKE, Ontario – Owner/trainer Michael Pino was taking an edge when he ran Postpone with a $16,000 claiming tag first-time out. Postpone prevailed with authority then, and should be well-backed when he reappears in Thursday’s Woodbine feature, a $47,400 allowance for nonwinners-of-two.

LEXINGTON, Ky. – Fasig-Tipton has cataloged 303 yearlings for its July 12 Kentucky selected yearling auction at Newtown Paddocks here. That’s down from 407 last year, which was 17 percent lower than in 2009.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. – The race for leading stallion in California is not a foregone conclusion this year.

In recent seasons, Unusual Heat has been the dominant sire by progeny earnings. He is the current leader, but is being closely pursued by Benchmark and Kafwain, who have been boosted by the success of graded stakes winners in California and the Midwest.

The stallion with a breakout racehorse on the national level may have an edge in the race for the title.

Janice and Robert McNair, who sold their successful Stonerside Stable breeding and racing operation to Sheikh Mohammed al-Maktoum three years ago, are back in the racing game. The Houston, Texas-based couple have not campaigned a horse since 2009, when their homebred millionaire Cowboy Cal retired to stud.

LEXINGTON, Ky. - Tom Simon's Vinery operation has opened a new bloodstock division at its Kentucky farm by privately acquiring Steve Castagnola's Kempton Bloodstock agency.

Castagnola, the former director of client development at Taylor made, went out on his own and formed Kempton Bloodstock in August 2009. He will now join Vinery as its director of bloodstock services.

Zenyatta, the 2010 Horse of the Year and the only mare to win the Breeders’ Cup Classic, is in foal after a second mating to Bernardini.

The mare’s pregnancy was confirmed on a website written by Dottie Ingordo-Shirreffs, purportedly in the mare’s “voice,” after vets performed an ultrasound Tuesday morning. Ingordo-Shirreffs is an adviser to the mare’s owners, Jerry and Ann Moss.
