ETOBICOKE, Ontario — Stormy Lord led throughout the Grade 2, $168,900 Connaught Cup Stakes on Sunday at Woodbine, while upsetting 2-5 shot Grand Adventure, last year’s winner of the seven-furlong turf sprint.
Stormy Lord set moderate fractions over a course labeled soft in the first grass stakes of the meet, as Macias and Grand Adventure stalked him on the turn. Grand Adventure seemed poised to pounce at the top of the stretch, but Stormy Lord kept on going to score by three lengths, in a time 1:25.72.
INGLEWOOD, Calif. - Givine closed from off the pace to give owner Marsha Naify and trainer Julio Canani their second stakes win in less than 24 hours in Sunday’s $73,250 Great Lady M. Stakes.
Saturday, Naify and Canani teamed to win the Grade 2 American Handicap with Ryehill Dreamer.
Alternation, who won the Peter Pan Stakes on May 14, will skip the Belmont Stakes on June 11 and point for major races later this summer, trainer Donnie Von Hemel said Sunday morning.
"We looked things over and decided to take a breather," said Von Hemel, who trains Alternation for the Pin Oak Stable of Josephine Abercrombie. "The horse is fine. We just decided to point for races like the Jim Dandy and the Travers. He's had four or five races early in the year. We want to give him a little breather now, then make some noise later."
Won’t Be Denied, who was all out to win her comeback from an eight-month layoff two weeks earlier, returned to score a wire-to-wire victory in Saturday night’s $51,100 It’s Binn Too Long Stakes for West Virginia-bred 3-year-old fillies at Charles Town.
The nation’s top-ranked older Quarter Horse and its leading 2-year-old were both upset in major stakes Saturday night, with Rylees Boy holding for a head win over Louisiana Senator in the Grade 1, $250,000 Remington Park Invitational, and High Rate of Return scoring by a half-length over Mighty B Valiant in the Grade 1, $1,029,950 Heritage Place Futurity.
