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.”

INGLEWOOD, Calif. – Hibaayeb, winner of the Grade 1 Yellow Ribbon Stakes in her U.S. debut at Hollywood Park on Oct. 2, will be ridden by Frankie Dettori in Friday’s $2 million Breeders’ Cup Filly and Mare Turf at Churchill Downs.

Simon Crisford, racing manager of Sheikh Mohammed’s Godolphin Racing, confirmed the assignment Sunday. Dettori has ridden the 3-year-old Hibaayeb in five of her 11 starts, including a victory in the Group 2 Ribblesdale Stakes for fillies and mares over 1 1/2 miles on turf at Royal Ascot in England on June 17.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. – By dawn Sunday, Zenyatta had already been out of her stall at trainer John Shirreffs’s stable at Hollywood Park for a 45-minute walk. It was to be the theme of her Sunday, a day after she worked six furlongs in 1:11.80 for Saturday’s Breeders’ Cup Classic at Churchill Downs.

Zenyatta was scheduled to have three walking sessions Sunday. She was back out for another walk in the 9 o’clock hour on Sunday morning and was to be walked and grazed in the afternoon. The only unknown was how long Shirreffs and his team could delay the start of the afternoon session.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. – Lookin At Lucky zipped five furlongs in 59.60 seconds at Hollywood Park on Sunday, his final workout before the Breeders’ Cup Classic at Churchill Downs on Saturday.

Anybody who’d like the opportunity to own a Breeders’ Cup starter, perhaps even a Breeders’ Cup winner, may have the chance to do just that when Awesome Feather goes into the sales ring on Nov. 7, just two days after she participates in the BC Juvenile Fillies.

Awesome Feather is cataloged as a racing/broodmare prospect and as Hip No. 10 in the Fasig-Tipton sale.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. – After missing a scheduled breeze Saturday morning because of an abscess in his right-front foot, Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint hopeful Chamberlain Bridge returned to the racetrack Sunday morning, when he jogged a mile the “wrong” way, or clockwise.

The abscess, an infected puss pocket in the hoof, drained through a nail hole after Chamberlain Bridge’s shoe was removed Saturday, Calhoun said.
