LOS ALAMITOS, Calif. - A torrential rainstorm during Friday's time trials for the Los Alamitos Million Futurity changed the condition of the track, and as a result some of the nation's top 2-year-old Quarter Horses failed to qualify for the $1.3 million race on Dec. 13.

Along Came Mary ($21.80), under Norberto Arroyo Jr., rallied along the rail in the stretch to take the lead, but drifted out several paths in deep stretch, forcing stablemate Princess Dixie, under Shaun Bridgmohan, to steady and alter course.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. - When Johar was bumped hard at the start of Sunday's , he did not get mad. And he got more than even.

Royal Gem was third, a neck behind Mananan McLir.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. - An eighth-place finish by Dress to Thrill in the Breeders' Cup Mile at Arlington Park in October left trainer Dermot Weld unsatisfied. An upset victory by the Irish invader in Sunday's $500,000 at Hollywood Park, against a field that included top fillies Golden Apples and Banks Hills, left Weld convinced that the Dress to Thrill is one of the world's top turf females.

"This filly deserves what she got today," Weld said. "The Breeders' Cup was not a true reflection of her ability. I wanted people to see what she was capable of."
