ARCADIA, Calif.- There might not be any NHL hockey for a while, but Bob Baffert and Rafael Bejarano each scored a Grade 1 hat trick on Saturday, capped off by an easy, 3 1/4-length victory by Game On Dude in the $250,000 Awesome Again Stakes before 17,565 at Santa Anita.
ARCADIA, Calif.- Marketing Mix has won races as lucrative as Saturday’s $250,000 Rodeo Drive Stakes at Santa Anita, but none as important.
By winning the Grade 1 Rodeo Drive, Marketing Mix has firmly joined the list of contenders for the $2 million Breeders’ Cup Filly and Mare Turf at Santa Anita on Nov. 2. She earned a fees-paid berth to the race with her comfortable victory in the race over 1 1/4 miles on turf.
“She makes you high on her,” said winning trainer Tom Proctor. “She’s handled everything we ever done to her.”
ARCADIA, Calif.- Nationwide, Love and Pride is demanding attention in the older female division.
In Saturday’s $250,000 Zenyatta Stakes at Santa Anita, Love and Pride led throughout the race over 1 1/16 miles to win her second consecutive Grade 1. She won her first career Grade 1 race in the Personal Ensign Handicap at Saratoga on Aug. 26.

ARCADIA, Calif. - When trainer Bob Baffert arrived at Del Mar this summer, Power Broker was at or near the top of his list of 2-year-old colts. Then he ran. Not once, not twice, but three times, Power Broker failed to win, yet Baffert kept the colt in high regard, and on Saturday at Santa Anita, Power Broker showed why.
VANCOUVER, British Columbia – Racing for Gold rallied to edge longshot Tempered Sapphire by a neck in the $50,000 Canadian Thoroughbred Horse Society Sales Stakes for 3-year-old fillies at Hastings on Saturday. She paid $6 for her narrow win in the 1 1/16-mile feature.
Heavily favored Dance the Wind came from well back to finish third, another neck behind Tempered Sapphire.
ARCADIA, Calif. - Executiveprivilege is bound for the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies on Nov. 2 with an unbeaten record.
Stretching her winning streak to five races, Executiveprivilege had little trouble winning her first start around two turns in Saturday’s $250,000 Chandelier Stakes at Santa Anita. The BC Juvenile Fillies will be run over the same 1 1/16 miles as the Chandelier.
Under a perfectly timed ride by Rafael Zenteno, Toccetive rallied to edge Real Dingo by a neck in the $100,000 Speed to Spare for 3-year-olds and up at Northlands Park Saturday. He paid $6.20 as the second choice in the wagering behind Senor Rojo, who set a moderate pace before tiring to finish third.
The final time for the 1 3/8-mile feature was 2:23.00.
Toccetive, trained by Joan Petrowski, became the first horse to win the Grade 3 Canadian Derby and Speed to Spare in the same year.

ELMONT, N. Y. – Point of Entry began 2012 eligible to a second-level allowance race. He is approaching the end of the 2012 racing season as perhaps America’s top hope for the Breeders’ Cup Turf.
ELMONT, N.Y. - Flat Out returned to his favorite racetrack Saturday and returned to the winner’s circle in the Jockey Club Gold Cup at Belmont Park. Now he will return to the Breeders’ Cup Classic, a race where he was the beaten favorite a year ago.
Flat Out, winless in six starts since capturing last year’s Jockey Club Gold Cup, needed the length of the Belmont Park stretch to get past the pace-setting Stay Thirsty to win the Gold Cup by a head before a crowd of 8,639.
It was 5 1/2 lengths back to Whitney winner Fort Larned in third.
