ELMONT, N.Y. - Aside from a rematch between Kentucky Derby winner Street Sense and Preakness winner Curlin, the next-best scenario for the June 9 Belmont Stakes would be the presence of the talented 3-year-old filly Rags to Riches.

Rags to Riches returned to the work tab on Monday, drilling four furlongs in 48.24 seconds, her first move since winning the Kentucky Oaks on May 4. A half-sister to Belmont Stakes winner Jazil by Belmont Stakes winner A.P. Indy, Rags to Riches remains a possibility to start in the $1 million Belmont, her trainer, Todd Pletcher, said Monday.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. - The problem with the flashy 3-year-old season that Three Degrees had in 2005 is that she has to live up to it.

Three Degrees won the Grade 2 Honeymoon Breeders' Cup Handicap in 2005 and later that season placed in the Grade 1 Del Mar Oaks. Last year, she was second in the Grade 1 Matriarch Stakes in November, her best result in a winless five-race season.

This year, Three Degrees can answer any questions about her with a win on Monday in the $300,000 Gamely Breeders' Cup Handicap.

All-sources handle on the Preakness Stakes on Saturday at Pimlico Race Course was $57,360,494, the third-highest handle figure for the race in its history and a slight gain over last year's figure, according to numbers released by Pimlico on Monday.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. - Jockey David Flores won the 3,000th race of his career aboard the longshot Time To Get Even in Sunday's $109,700 Laz Barrera Memorial Stakes at Hollywood Park, a mount he picked up after jockey Alex Bisono took off because of soreness earlier in the day.

Flores guided Time to Get Even wide through the stretch to catch 2-1 favorite Principle Secret in the final strides to win by a neck. Principle Secret, who was part of the early pace, held second and finished a nose in front of Desert Code in the field of eight 3-year-olds.

AUBURN, Wash. - Dinner at Arlene's ($45.60), clearly relishing the sloppy track, went to the front with an initial quarter-mile in 22 seconds and splashed to a 2 3/4 length victory over favored Kissntheboysgoodby in Sunday's $45,000 Hastings Park Handicap at Emerald Downs.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia - Napa ($26.90), with a little help from her stablemate, Sophisticated Star, came from last to win the $55,733 Emerald Downs Stakes at Hastings Racecourse on Sunday.

Trainer Dino Condilenios's strategy of using Sophisticated Star as a rabbit to help set up Napa's good late move in the 6 1/2-furlong feature worked perfectly. Over a track rated sloppy, Sophisticated Star set a fast opening quarter-mile fraction of 22.01 seconds before she tired and finished last.

ETOBICOKE, Ontario - Bear Now ($26.70) crushed her opposition in Sunday's $262,800 Selene Stakes at Woodbine, winning the 1 1/16-mile race for 3-year-old fillies in a track-record time of 1:43.73.

Manduro earned his first Group 1 win at Longchamp in France on Sunday with a handy five-length victory in the $336,000 Prix d'Ispahan.

Coach Jimi Lee ($3) had to outfight three challengers in the stretch to prevail by a half-length in the $75,000 Waterford Park Handicap at Mountaineer Racetrack.

The Chicago-based Coach Jimi Lee, making his first start since October, was part of a four-way tussle for the lead turning for home in the six-furlong race. Bernie Blue drew even with Coach Jimi Lee in the upper stretch, but the odds-on favorite dug in under urging by Dana Whitney and drew clear to win in 1:10.22.

Bernie Blue held second, a neck in front of Cognac Kisses.

Snow Way ($7), only 1 for 10 everywhere else she has raced, improved her record at Charles Town to 3 for 3 with a 1 1/2-length victory over 9-5 favorite She's a Smash in Saturday night's $51,500 Country Road Stakes for 3-year-old fillies.

Ridden by Kendrick Carmouche for trainer J. Michael Rogers, Snow Way covered 4 1/2 furlongs in 52.98 seconds.
