Favorites ruled both divisions of the Fonner Park Special Stakes for 3-year-old Nebraska-breds on Saturday as 3-5 choice Heso scored by six lengths and 3-2 choice Plaer's Trump both scored their biggest career victories.

Heso drew off in the colts and geldings division under Dennis Collins to collect his first stakes win and third career victory with Dennis Collins aboard for trainer Larry Donlin. Buffalo Road checked in second, three lengths in front of pacesetting Bevys Best. Heso covered the six furlongs over a fast track in 1:14.80.

Don't Strike Out's form had not been all that sharp in recent months, but he picked the right time for a rebound as the 7-year-old gelding finished strongly to post a 22-1 upset in the $100,000 Sunland Park Handicap on Saturday.

Owned by Richard Kasuda and trianed by Ray Carlisle Jr., Don't Strike Out raced sixth early in the 1 1/8-mile event, made a strong run to circle the field on the far turn, and continued on smartly to prove an easy 2 3/4-length winner under Mark Villa.

GRAND PRAIRIE, Texas - Olmosta closed from last for a neck win over favorite Sweet Idea in the $50,000 JEH Stallion Station Stakes for Texas-bred fillies and mares at Lone Star Park on Saturday. It was another length and a quarter back in third to Annie Savoy.

SAN MATEO, Calif. – Stylish Wildcat broke on top, establishing an immediate lead, and pulled away in the lane to win the $52,300 Monterey Handicap on Saturday at Bay Meadows.

Stylish Wildcat ($5.20), who won a comeback race here March 25 following a five-month layoff, defeated defending champion Vaca City Flyer by four lengths in the five-furlong stakes for fillies and mares. Her winning time was 56.72. Calamity Girl, who tried to press the winner early, wound up third.

ARCADIA, CaliF. - Naughty Rafaela, a Group 1 winner in Brazil in 2005, won her first stakes in the United States in Saturday's $200,000 Santa Barbara Handicap at Santa Anita.

The victory gave trainer Bobby Frankel his sixth career win in the Grade 2 Santa Barbara and fourth in the last five years. Frankel won the Santa Barbara in 2003-05 with Megahertz.

STICKNEY, Ill. - Imagine a world, you aspiring jockeys in the crowd, where you could ride like it was a match race. You've got one horse to beat, nothing else to worry about. That was the world of John Velazquez on Saturday afternoon at Hawthorne Race Course. Granted, there were four horses in the Grade 3, $250,000 National Jockey Club Handicap, but two were filler, and Velazquez, aboard favored Master Command, had only Sweetnorthernsaint as a concern.

"I was told to stay right next to the horse," said Velazquez,

LEXINGTON, Ky. - Slew's Tizzy became infamous this winter as the longshot who stumbled and lost his rider during the Risen Star Stakes at Fair Grounds, nearly derailing the Kentucky Derby hopes of Circular Quay, who was fortunate to avert injury when narrowly dodging the incident.

Slew's Tizzy became known for a far better reason Saturday, when 33,821, the largest crowd in the 71-year history of Keeneland, turned out to watch him go wire-to-wire when pulling a stunning 40-1 upset in the 26th running of the $325,000 Lexington Stakes.

OZONE PARK, N.Y. - As he watched Carmandia trail the field through the first 5 1/2 furlongs of Saturday's Grade 2 Bed o' Roses Breeders' Cup Handicap, trainer Richard Dutrow Jr. began to think the worst.

"I thought we were dead," Dutrow said.

OLDSMAR, Fla. - Zeeva, one of the few bright spots for trainer Ray Tamargo this winter, goes after her third straight win Tuesday when she tries allowance company for the first time. A field of seven older fillies and mares are slated to go to the post in the seven-furlong feature at Tampa Bay Downs.

Trainer Mark Shuman enjoyed a perfect day Saturday at Pimlico, going 3 for 3 with the stakes horses he entered in the Spring Racing Festival.

Shuman's sweep was highlighted by Xchanger's dominating performance in the featured $125,000 Federico Tesio for 3-year-olds.

Shuman also pulled off upsets with 6-1 Talent Search in the $77,800 Jim McKay Sprint and 8-1 My Girlie in the $88,000 Northview Stallion Station for Maryland-bred or Maryland Million-nominated fillies and mares.
