On Saturday, Motion said that race would be the Grade 1 Joe Hirsch Turf Classic Invitational at Belmont Park on Oct. 1.

DEL MAR, Calif. – In most years, the winner of the Grade 3 Sorrento Stakes at Del Mar is considered a long-term prospect for the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies, with the hope of bidding for the division championship.

This year, owner John Liviakis and trainer Melody Conlon have a slightly different plan. They won the $150,000 Sorrento Stakes on Friday with Mighty Caroline, whom they consider a long-term prospect for the BC Juvenile Fillies Turf, which will be run the same day at Churchill Downs.

“If we’re lucky enough,” Liviakis said.
