VANCOUVER, British Columbia - The top older filly or mare at Emerald Downs, Karis Makaw, will take on the best older females at Hastings in the $40,000 Delta Collen Saturday. With seven stakes winners among the eight horses entered in the 1 1/16-mile feature, it appears to be a very competitive race.
AUBURN, Wash. - Jumpingjupiter may have a slight edge over seven rivals in Saturday's highly competitive Emerald Downs feature, a six-furlong affair to be run under optional $25,000 claiming conditions.
Jumpingjupiter's advantage rests in his remarkable consistency. In five starts this season, the 5-year-old Jumpingjupiter has not finished worse than second. He won a 6 1/2-furlong race for $20,000 claimers in June, and he is coming off a 6 1/2-furlong
EDMONTON, Alberta - Crown's Justice, a 5-year-old trained by Pam McDougall, has won twice against $22,000 claimers this season at Northlands Park, but hasn't been able to handle the $30,000 kind. On Saturday, he will try again to beat $30,000 claimers in a 6 1/2-furlong sprint.
The race, which will go as the fifth on Saturday's card, has drawn a field of five 3-year-olds and up.
OCEANPORT, N.J. - The Grade 1 Haskell Invitational was an ambitious spot for Joey P.
In it, Joey P. - a gelding who had shown so much talent as a sprinter - was sent 1 1/8 miles against some of the leaders in the 3-year-old division.
He hung in gamely for seven furlongs before fading out of the picture.
returns to action Saturday at Monmouth Park in the $100,000 Friendly Lover Handicap, a race for New Jersey-breds that poses a different set of challenges.
ETOBICOKE, Ontario - Le Cinquieme Essai had a change of pace here Thursday morning at Woodbine when he galloped over the main track in preparation for Sunday's Grade 1, $1 million .
"Most of the time he goes to the training track very, very early," said Paul Nielsen, who trains Le Cinquieme Essai for owner and breeder Bill Scott. "I wanted him to have a little open gallop over the main track this morning and have a look around. Then he did his posing for the press, and came home."
SAN MATEO, Calif. - For all her talent, Conveyor's Angel has had her career compromised by health issues and bad luck.
That's why trainer Chris Paasch has her in the $60,000-added Palo Alto Handicap at Bay Meadows on Saturday rather than the Grade 3, $200,000 Pucker Up at Arlington.
"Meaning no disrespect to the other fillies, I was looking for a soft spot," said Paasch, who hopes a confidence-building victory will propel Conveyor's Angel to success back East in her next start.
HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. - Gulfstream Park will have a new, state-of-the-art grandstand for its 2006 racing season, which opens on Jan. 3, but virtually the same stakes schedule as in 2005.
The 2006 stakes schedule consists of 46 races worth just over $8 million in purses. As usual, the $1 million Florida Derby is the cornerstone of the program, and for the second straight year it will be decided on the first Saturday in April, which falls on April 1.
