LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Carl Bowman has run one horse in the Breeders’ Cup, a millionaire mare named Lu Ravi who was fifth in the 2000 Distaff (now Ladies’ Classic) at Churchill Downs. Bowman doesn’t have anything to run this weekend in the Breeders’ Cup, but he will start the week with something to remind himself of that rare opportunity a decade ago.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. - Another series of important Breeders' Cup workouts took place both on the main track and turf course following the renovation break Monday morning at Churchill Downs.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. - Blame, among the favorites for the Classic, topped a group of four Breeder's Cup starters to work before the renovation break at a chilly Churchill Downs on Monday.

Blame, with jockey Garrett Gomez aboard, went an easy half mile in 49.72 seconds before galloping out five-eighths in 1:03.56. He was followed, in order, by Thiskyhasnolimit (Dirt Mile), a half in 48.66; Warrior's Reward (Sprint), four furlongs in 49.02; and Riley Tucker (Sprint), four furlongs in 49.51.

Glory Be Mine came into the $2 million New Mexico Cup card at Zia Park riding a significant win streak, and it remained intact Sunday when she won her seventh straight race in the $151,575 Fillies. The race was one of 11 stakes on the card, with seven of them for Thoroughbreds and four for Quarter Horses. All of the stakes were restricted to horses bred in New Mexico, with the mixed-breed, statebred championship program being the richest of its kind in North America.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. – Briecat’s upset win in the $150,000 Las Palmas Handicap at Hollywood Park on Sunday equaled the most prestigious win of her career, but it meant more to trainer Vladimir Cerin.

The Grade 2 Las Palmas was Briecat’s first graded stakes win since the Grade 2 Bayakoa Handicap at Hollywood Park in 2008.

“The Bayakoa, I expected her to win, but this was a quality field,” Cerin said.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. – It was another busy and somewhat unconventional morning on the Breeders’ Cup watch that included a gate workout from a former Kentucky Derby winner and a four-furlong drill for a Classic hopeful that began at the wire and ended at the half-mile pole instead of the other way around.

ETOBICOKE, Ontario – Indian Apple Is ($10.90) benefited from a hot pace and got up in the final strides to take the $185,000 Ontario Fashion Stakes on Sunday at Woodbine.

American shipper Waccamaw set uncontested fractions of 21.62 seconds and 44.36, while Indian Apple Is raced in midpack under Chantal Sutherland. Indian Apple Is closed widest in the stretch and prevailed by a half-length, in a time of 1:09.76 for the six furlongs.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Dancinginherdreams confirmed the confidence her connections showed in her when romping to an easy victory Sunday in the Grade 2, $165,450 Pocahontas Stakes at Churchill Downs.

Dubai Dancer won her stakes and two-turn debut Sunday in the $70,000 Witches Brew Stakes over a mile and 70 yards at Monmouth Park. It was her third straight victory.

Sent off as the 1-2 favorite in a field of six 3-year-old fillies, Dubai Dancer tracked the pace in third behind Bwana Babe and C C’s Pal. Dubai Dancer moved between those horses on the backstretch and was about head behind Bwana Babe entering the far turn.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. – Temple City, winner of the Grade 3 Cougar II Handicap at Del Mar in July, will not start in Friday’s $500,000 Breeders’ Cup Marathon at Churchill Downs, trainer Carla Gaines said Sunday.

Instead, owner B. Wayne Hughes and Gaines have opted to leave Temple City at Hollywood Park for the $250,000 Hollywood Turf Cup over 1 1/2 miles on Nov. 13.

“He didn’t take to the dirt too well at Hawthorne,” Gaines said. “We can stay here on a course we know he likes.”
