The undefeated 2-year-old filly Dreamfyre is switching surfaces for her next start, the Grade 3 Surfer Girl Stakes at a mile on turf at Santa Anita on Oct. 8.

Dreamfyre won two sprint stakes on dirt during the summer – the Everett Nevin Stakes at 5 1/2 furlongs at the Alameda County Fair in Pleasanton on July 9 in her debut, and the Grade 3 Sorrento Stakes at six furlongs at Del Mar on Aug. 12.

Harry Hernandez has been the runaway leader in the jockey standings at Turf Paradise the last two years.

He has no plans to try for a third straight title.

With the Phoenix track’s racing schedule unsettled, Hernandez said earlier this week that he plans to begin riding at Oaklawn Park for the first time later this year. Recent developments indicating that Turf Paradise will resume racing in early 2024 have not swayed the 26-year-old jockey.

The new buyer for Turf Paradise racetrack in Phoenix will complete the deal within the next two months and plans to hold a live racing meet at the track at the beginning of 2024, if not sooner, Arizona racing officials said at a Department of Racing meeting on Thursday.

ETOBICOKE, Ontario — An exhibit honoring the 50th anniversary of the great Secretariat’s final career start in the 1973 Canadian International has been scheduled for Oct. 5-8 during live racing on Level 3 at Woodbine.

Secretariat, the 1973 Triple Crown winner, completed his illustrious career on the grass at Woodbine with a blowout score in the 1 5/8-mile Canadian International on Oct. 28, 1973. The exhibit celebrates the accomplishments of “Big Red” and features his trophies in the Kentucky Derby, Preakness, and Belmont Stakes.

OZONE PARK, N.Y. - The two-time New York-bred stakes winning filly Sterling Silver will make her ninth attempt at winning an open-company stakes when she runs in Saturday’s Grade 2, $250,000 Gallant Bloom at Aqueduct, which will go as race 5 on an 11-race card.

Sterling Silver finished third in last year’s Gallant Bloom, which followed a narrow neck defeat in the Grade 2 Prioress Stakes at Saratoga.

Two starts back, Sterling Silver won an open-company second-level allowance before finishing sixth of seven in the Grade 1 Ballerina.

OZONE PARK, N.Y. - Cody’s Wish, who had his six-race winning streak snapped when he finished third in the Grade 1 Whitney, will face five rivals in Saturday’s Grade 2, $250,000 Vosburgh Stakes at Aqueduct.

Cody’s Wish is a four-time Grade 1 stakes winner. His five opponents have combined to win one graded stakes, and that was by High Oak, who, like Cody’s Wish, is trained by Bill Mott. High Oak won the Grade 2 Saratoga Special at 2 in 2021. Most recently, he finished third behind Gunite and Elite Power in the Grade 1 Forego at Saratoga.

OZONE PARK, N.Y. - There are four Grade 1 marathon turf stakes for males on the New York Racing Association circuit and, this year, Solider Rising has finished second in the first three.

He’ll try to go one better in Saturday’s Grade 1, $500,000 Joe Hirsch Stakes scheduled for 1 1/2 miles at Aqueduct.

Soldier Rising finished second to Red Knight in the Man o’ War, and second to Up to the Mark in the Manhattan at Belmont Park. Last month, he was second best to Bolshoi Ballet in the Sword Dancer.

OZONE PARK, N.Y. - Law Professor sidled up alongside heavily favored Life Is Good at the top of the stretch of last year’s Grade 1 Woodward Stakes and for a brief moment, it appeared a major upset could be in the offing.

But in the final furlong, Life Is Good edged away from Law Professor to win by 1 1/2 lengths, with Law Professor settling for second.

Life Is Good will likely be running around his paddock at WinStar Farm Saturday afternoon when Law Professor takes another shot at the Woodward - run this year as a Grade 2 worth $400,000 - at Aqueduct.

Trainer Herman Wilensky’s first two starters at Remington Park won stakes on the Oklahoma Derby undercard Sunday and the horses – Chi Chi and My Destiny – are now bound for Keeneland.

Wilensky brought a handful of horses to Remington from Southern California, and after a few more run in overnight races in Oklahoma the group will head to Kentucky.

Chi Chi came to Remington a maiden and will leave a stakes winner by virtue of her victory in the $50,000 E.L. Gaylord Memorial. The 2-year-old filly won the 6 1/2-furlong race in 1:17.98 and earned a Beyer Speed Figure of 81.
