EDMONTON, Alberta – No Hesitation left no doubt he is the top 3-year-old in Western Canada with a convincing win over Kara’s Orientation in the Grade 3, $300,000 Canadian Derby at Northlands Park Saturday. The race was marred by a three-horse spill on the third turn.

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. - The road warrior did it again. And now Blind Luck is in the driver’s seat in the 3-year-old filly division.

Once again forced to rally from last behind slow fractions, Blind Luck came five wide in the stretch, blew past favored Devil May Care outside the three-sixteenths pole, then collared Havre de Grace in deep stretch and outfinished her to the wire to win the $500,000 Alabama Stakes by a neck at Saratoga.

OCEANPORT, N.J. - Duke of Mischief rallied for a 16-1 upset of 11-10 favorite Redding Colliery on Saturday in the Grade 3, $300,000 Philip H. Iselin Stakes at Monmouth Park.

I Want Revenge was third again in the second start of his comeback.

ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, Ill. – The applause began, politely, near his box, then quickly spread throughout the entire section towering above the Arlington Park finish line Saturday. By the time 88-year-old Richard Duchossois disappeared on his way to the winner’s circle, there was whistling, raucous cheering, and maybe even a tear or two in heartfelt recognition of what had just transpired on the Arlington turf.

ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, Ill. – After Gio Ponti blew to the lead in deep stretch and appeared poised to win the Arlington Million for the second straight year, 11-1 shot Debussy surfaced from nowhere to nail him in the final few strides in a dramatic conclusion to the 28th Million.

With William Buick riding for Darley Stud and Princess Haya of Jordan, Debussy, an Irish-bred 4-year-old trained by John Gosden, returned $24 after finishing the 1 1/4-mile distance in 2:03.01 over a good turf course.

Ben’s Cat proved to be just as effective on turf as he has been on the main track.
A 4-year-old colt making his turf debut after beginning his career with four consecutive sprint victories on dirt, Ben’s Cat ($7.20) remained undefeated when he came from o ff the pace to win Saturday’s $50,000 Mister Diz Stakes for Maryland-breds at Laurel Park.

ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, Ill. -- Trainers do not make a habit of comparing star horses that have passed through their barn. Bad politics. But after Paddy O’Prado had won his third straight graded turf stakes, capturing the $400,000 Secretariat by 1 1/4 lengths over English invader Wigmore Hall on a steamy Saturday at Arlington Park, trainer Dale Romans did not hesitate to bring up a standout from the past.

ETOBICOKE, Ontario - Jacally assumed command shortly after the start and led virtually throughout en route to capturing Saturday’s $126,200 Eternal Search for Ontario-sired 3-year-old fillies here at Woodbine on Saturday.

The 1 1/16-mile Eternal Search was far from uneventful, however, as Venus Bay had rallied from last place in the field of eight and loomed a solid threat to the front-runner before going very wide coming into the stretch.

Chris Englehart, the leading trainer at Finger Lakes, knew what he was doing when he risked $50,000 to claim Be Bullish at Saratoga last month.
Englehart got a quick return on his investment when the 5-year-old Be Bullish drew clear in the stretch to win Saturday’s $50,000 Leon Reed Memorial Handicap at Finger Lakes.
Sent off as the 2-1 second choice in a field of seven older New York-bred sprinters, Be Bullish ($6.40) and jockey John Davila Jr. sat in third as Wicked Climb and Pro’s Pal dueled through fractions of 21.82 and 45.11 seconds.

Startin Something made it back-to-back stakes wins when she assumed command after a half-mile and drew off to a handy six-length-win over her six Ohio-bred 2-year-old rivals in the 43rd running of the $50,000, six-furlong Miss Ohio Stakes on Saturday at Thistledown.
Throws It Down set the pace for a halmile and finished second, one length in front of Mini Reward.
Startin Something is owned by his breeder Blazing Meadows Farm and trained by Tim Hamm, who saddled five of the seven starters in the race. Hamm's runners finished first, second, third, and fifth.
