ETOBICOKE, Ontario – It was just a three-horse field, but Conquest Tsunami made short work of his two rivals in Saturday’s $157,250 Colin Stakes to remain undefeated in three starts as a 2-year-old.

Conquest Tsunami got out to the lead early in the Colin and drew off through the turn to win by 6 3/4 lengths over R U Watchingbud. Conquest Tsunami earned a 77 Beyer Speed Figure and has won his three career races by a combined 20 3/4 lengths.

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. - Wicked Strong, Tonalist and Kid Cruz - the top three finishers from Saturday’s Grade 2 Jim Dandy Stakes - all came out of the race in relatively good order and all will be pointed to the $1.25 million Travers Stakes here on Aug. 23, their connections said Sunday morning.

Beginning in 2005, the Jim Dandy has produced seven Travers winners. Wicked Strong will try to join the likes of Flower Alley (2005), Bernardini (2006), Street Sense (2007), Stay Thirsty (2011), and Alpha (dead heat for Travers win in 2012) who pulled off the Jim Dandy-Travers double.

DEL MAR, Calif. – Chilled Mousse, an unraced 2-year-old colt, became the fifth horse to die at Del Mar since Friday when he suffered fatal injuries following a four-furlong workout on Polytrack on Sunday morning.

Chilled Mousse was timed in 50.20 seconds for what was to be his final drill for a scheduled debut on Friday, but his injuries were so grave that he had to be euthanized, according to his trainer, Peter Miller.

“You try to do everything right – work right after the break, put on a light rider - and still it happens,” Miller said Sunday morning.

Mr Speaker took another step toward a possible start in the $1.25 million Travers Stakes here at Saratoga next month by working four furlongs in 48.88 seconds Saturday over Saratoga’s main track.

It was Mr Speaker’s second work on dirt since he won the Grade 1, $1.25 million Belmont Derby on turf July 5. It was his first work over the main track, having breezed last week over the Oklahoma training track.

Trainer Shug McGaughey said last week that he would give Mr Speaker every opportunity to prove that he belongs in the Travers.

Delaware Park has lowered the purses for its higher-level overnight races to preserve its purse account.

The Stanton, Del., track’s casino, which is the major contributor to racing purses, is facing increased competition from casino gambling in other Mid-Atlantic states.

Palace, the former claimer turned multiple graded stakes winner, will set his sights on his first Grade 1 race in next Saturday’s $350,000 Alfred G. Vanderbilt Handicap at Saratoga.

On Saturday, Palace put in his final breeze for the Vanderbilt by working four furlongs in 48.29 seconds over the main track, galloping out five furlongs in 1:00.22.

“Very happy with the way he’s coming into this race,” trainer Linda Rice said. “He won over the course last year, six furlongs is right up his alley, and he’s training great.”

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. – Tea Time, a winner of two listed stakes in the Mid-Atlantic region in the last two months, sizzled a half-mile in 46.67 seconds over Saratoga’s main track Saturday in preparation for next Saturday’s Grade 1 Test Stakes for 3-year-old fillies.

Under exercise rider Clare Byrnes, Tea Time started behind the maiden Skidmore, quickly engaged her a quarter-mile into the work, then glided away from her late.

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. – Trainer Eric Guillot is never one to be at a loss for words, but when asked what he thought about Moreno’s lone work in preparation for next Saturday’s Grade 1 Whitney, he simply said, “I thought it was good.”

After which, he just couldn’t contain himself any longer.

“I think after the Whitney, [the New York Racing Association] should put up half a million [dollars] and make a match race between Moreno and Palace Malice at 8:45 in the morning,” Guillot said with a laugh. “There isn’t a horse in the country that’s going to outwork this horse.”

DEL MAR, Calif. – Irish Surf is a candidate for the $1 million Pacific Classic at Del Mar on Aug. 24 after winning the first stakes of his career in Friday’s $100,750 Cougar II Handicap in track-record time.

Irish Surf ($17.60) took charge of the Grade 3 race over 1 1/2 miles after a half-mile, led by eight lengths on the backstretch, and won by 8 1/4 lengths over even-money favorite Sky Kingdom. Irish Surf was timed in 2:29.01, lowering the previous mark of 2:29.22 set by Richard’s Kid in the 2012 Cougar II Handicap.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia – Trainer John Snow is hoping that either Wilo Kat or Twistgrips will give him a second win in the $75,000 B.C. Cup Classic. The 1 1/8-mile Classic is the main attraction of the six stakes races restricted to British Columbia-breds that will make up the bulk of the card on B.C. Cup Day, Monday, Aug. 4.

Since its inception in 1995, B.C. Cup Day has either been the top or second-best day in terms of attendance and handle at Hastings.
