Michael the Man, sixth in his only prior turf try, showed he really does have an affinity for grass as he captured the $25,000 Jack Coady Sr. Stakes at Turf Paradise on Saturday.
Owned and trained by Frank Lucarelli, the 3-year-old Michael the Man ran sixth on the turf at Golden Gate last Dec. 4. This was his first start since running fifth in the Pepsi-Cola Handicap at Emerald Downs June 27.
MIAMI - Birdrun capped off the eight stakes Florida Million Day program with a decisive 4 1/2-length victory over the 4-5 favorite Duke of Mischief in the $150,000 Carl G. Rose Classic on Saturday at Calder.
Birdrun controlled the pace under deft handling by Rajiv Maragh and reasserted himself after being briefly headed by Duke of Mischief in early stretch. Duke of Mischief outlasted Dream Maestro to save second by a diminishing head.
LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Yankee Fourtune stayed unbeaten in five starts on grass when he ran away from 12 fellow 3-year-olds Saturday in the seventh running of the Grade 3, $121,900 Commonwealth Stakes at Churchill Downs.
ETOBICOKE, Ontario — Stunning Stag blew away a solid group of older runners at a surprisingly square price in the $171,000 Autumn Stakes at Woodbine Racetrack on Saturday.
Stunning Stag returned a generous $10.30, even though he won the allowance prep for the Grade 2 Autumn. He earned $108,000 for owner Janice Attard, the wife of trainer Sid Attard, who claimed him for $40,000 three years ago.
OCEANPORT, N.J. - Loving Dove and Breathoffresheir captured the $70,000 divisions of the Jersey Juvenile for 2-year-olds on Saturday at Monmouth Park. The six-furlong Jersey Juvenile was the last major stakes of the season for New Jersey-breds.
Loving Dove ($10.40) won the colt division by 1 1/2 lengths over Porcini Prince. Trained by Greg Sacco, Loving Dove thrived on the return to statebred action after running in a pair of open stakes. Loving Dove split rivals with Elvis Trujillo aboard for his second win in five starts.
OZONE PARK, N.Y. – Roger Attfield has plundered New York’s stakes for fillies and mares all year, so it was only fitting he should send Mekong Melody down from Woodbine to capture Saturday’s Grade 3, $150,000 Long Island Handicap at Aqueduct – the division’s final graded stakes of the year in New York.
MIAMI – Pickapocket returned to the scene of one of the toughest losses of his career to register his gamest victory to date when he outlasted the even-money favorite Bim Bam by a nose to capture Saturday’s $125,000 Bonnie Heath Turf Cup at Calder. The Bonnie Heath was the third of eight stakes on Saturday’s Florida Million program.
