  • Music Note ($2 million Ladies’ Classic on Nov. 6) worked five furlongs on Pro-Ride in 1:01.40. “She worked terrific,” said Richard Migliore, who was aboard for the drill. “She finished up really well.”

  • Lethal Heat (Ladies’ Classic/Turf Sprint) worked four furlongs on turf Wednesday in :49.60 for Barry Abrams, while defending Turf Sprint king Desert Code went six furlongs on grass in 1:13.40 for David Hofmans.

  • Champion filly Indian Blessing, aiming for the $1 million Sentient Jet Filly & Mare Sprint at seven furlongs on Nov. 6, worked five furlongs on Pro-Ride Monday in 1:00.20 for Baffert.

  • Mike Smith, who has ridden undefeated Zenyatta in each of her 13 victories, appeared as much in the dark as everyone else on whether the champion mare will make her next start in the Ladies’ Classic or face males for the first time in the Breeders’ Cup Classic. “I haven’t talked to John (trainer John Shirreffs) about it, to tell you the truth,” the Hall of Fame rider said. “I don’t know what he plans to do. He has plenty of time. He’ll probably see who’s running where and go from there.”

LOL

And I won't bet a dime on it even though I'm going.

Side note, is there anyone who's easier to dislike than Irwin between his ridiculous partnership charges and long line of failed touts?

In other Breeders’ Cup news:
  • Unbeaten champion mare Zenyatta galloped at her Hollywood Park headquarters Thursday, and probably will breeze “in the next couple days,” John Shirreffs said. The trainer plans to pre-enter Zenyatta in the Classic and the Ladies’ Classic at 1 1/8 miles on Nov. 6.

  • Richard Migliore is scheduled to work Godolphin’s Sara Louise on Friday for the $1 million Sentient Jet Filly & Mare Sprint at seven furlongs on Nov. 6.

  • Richard Mandella plans to pre-enter Crown of Thorns in both the $1 million Dirt Mile and the $2 million Sentient Jet Sprint at six furlongs on Nov. 7, with his preference being the Dirt Mile.

  • Dan Ward, assistant to Jerry Hollendorfer, said Oak Leaf Stakes winner Blind Luck ($2 million Grey Goose Juvenile Fillies at 1 1/16 miles on Nov. 6) and Chocolate Candy (Dirt Mile) probably will work Sunday, at a distance to be determined.

-Awesome Gem will run in the B.C. Classic
-Kodiak Kowboy expected for the B.C. Sprint
-QEII Winner Hot Cha Cha is still uncertain for the B.C. Ladies Turf
-No Breeders Cup for Jeff Mullins’ Carlsbad or Battle of Hastings
-Kiaran McLaughlin hopes Hatheer has done enough to have earned a spot in the B.C. Juv. Filly Turf. A division that is chaos because of all of the rain this fall.

KIEREN FALLON will have his first high profile ride for former boss Sir Michael Stoute since his return from an 18-month riding ban when he partners Spanish Moon in the Breeders' Cup Turf at Santa Anita on November 6. Fallon has ridden for Stoute since his return and enjoyed his first Grade 1 success since his comeback when partnering the Marco Botti-trained Gitano Hernando to victory in the Goodwood Stakes at Santa Anita a fortnight ago.

SAEED BIN SUROOR has issued an upbeat bulletin on Delegator and Mastery as they continue their preparation for the Breeders' Cup at Santa Anita next month. Delegator is an intended starter in the Breeders' Cup Mile, along with stablemate Gladiatorus, and is back working well after disappointing in the Sony-sponsored Queen Elizabeth II Stakes. "He worked very well a few days ago and came back very good from his last race," Bin Suroor said on At The Races. "I thought he'd be winning [the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes] or coming somewhere close. "He's always healthy and very honest and I think the track [at Santa Anita] will really suit him."

Yesterday's Workouts:

Quantum Racing Team #1 LLC’s 4-year-old gelding Mambo Meister was very impressive winning the $100,000 Spend a Buck Handicap (G3) at Calder Race Course last Saturday by 3 ¾ lengths for trainer Phil Gleaves, and the Florida-bred is likely bound for California and a start in the $1 million Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile (G1) at Santa Anita on Sat., Nov. 7.

“We’ve made arrangements for a cargo flight on the (Sat., Oct.) 31st to get him there,” said Gleaves Friday morning. “We’ve had several discussions with the racing manager of the syndicate, Chris Pallas, and the eight owners and looked at the probable field, and basically decided to give him a chance.

“He’s done very well this week, but we’ll have one more conference call on Sunday before going ahead and making the pre-entry fee on Monday (Oct. 26),” said the veteran horseman who has run two horses previously in Breeders’ Cup events, both in the Juvenile. Happy Jazz Band finished fourth behind Fly So Free in the 1990 renewal at Belmont Park and Devil On Ice 10th in 1991 at Churchill Downs.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mambo Meister may be the only horse based at Calder headed for the Breeders’ Cup this year, although there are strong connections to the Miami track from a number of other major contenders, most notably 2-year-olds that launched their careers here earlier this season before being sold privately.

Paul Pompa, Jr.s’ 2-year-old colt D’Funnybone made his first two starts here for trainer Joe Calascibetta, winning his debut on May 23 and finishing second to Jackson Bend in the $100,000 Frank Gomez Memorial on July 11 before being sold shortly thereafter and sent to trainer Rick Dutrow in New York.
A Florida-bred son of D’wildcat, D’Funnybone has since won the Saratoga Special (G2) on Aug. 20 by 10 ½ lengths and The Futurity (G2) at Belmont Park on Sept. 19 by 4 ¾ lengths. He is listed as a probable starter in the $2 million Breeders’ Cup Juvenile (G1) on Nov. 7.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Already in California after beginning her career at Calder is Kentucky-bred filly Blind Luck, a daughter of Pollard’s Vision that won her career debut here on June 21 by 13 ¼ lengths for trainer Jim Hatchett. She was purchased shortly thereafter by trainer Jerry Hollendorfer and partners.

In three starts this summer since the purchase, Blind Luck won a starter/allowance at Del Mar in late July, finished a game second in the Del Mar Debutante (G1) in early September and drew off to win the Oak Leaf Stakes (G1) at Santa Anita on Oct. 4, a performance could lead her to be the favorite in the $2 million Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies (G1) on Fri., Nov. 6.

Two-time champion Indian Blessing will not be pre-entered on Monday for the $1 million Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Sprint at Santa Anita on Nov. 6, trainer Bob Baffert said on Sunday.

Baffert was unhappy with Indian Blessing's six-furlong workout in 1:12.80 on Santa Anita's Pro-Ride surface Sunday morning.

"I think I'm going to pass," he said. "She just doesn't like the track. What can you do? She looks good. It's frustrating.

"I'm not going to pre-enter because I don't want the temptation to change my mind."

Where else can he run her? Wait for Hollywood (which is also synthetic), wait and ship her to Gulfstream (where she would probably do well), or retire her. Dubai is switching over to synthetic, so I assume that is out.

As a fan, I would like to see her race one more time and go out with a win before being bred.

Her defection lowers the odds on Informed Decision, who I really like.

McPEEK SHOVING CONNIE AND MICHAEL INTO BC JUVY FILLY PICTURE...

http://www.drf.com/news/article/108283.html

Already expected to have a chance to win the $2 million Juvenile Fillies with Beautician, trainer Ken McPeek hopes to increase his chances if he can get Connie and Michael into the race as well. Connie and Michael was an impressive 7 3/4-length maiden winner last Saturday at Keeneland, running seven furlongs in 1:22.74 while hardly being asked by Kent Desormeaux. She earned a Beyer Speed Figure of 95. She was the 5-2 favorite in a field of 12.

"She's trained like a good horse from the beginning," McPeek said. "She acts like she could be a good thing. I'm reluctant to run against myself, but it's probably the right thing to do. I think we got a good shot to win this with one or the other."

McPeek did say that Robby Albarado would ride Beautician in the Juvenile Fillies. Albarado guided Beautician to a maiden win at Churchill, while Desormeaux has ridden her in her last three starts. Desormeaux would ride Connie and Michael if she gets into the race.

I have a fundamental belief right or wrong I will sink or swim with... but I firmly believe European trainers are better at getting their horses fit for stamina type of races, a marathon over there is 2 miles + hard to believe but 1 3/4 might be a cut back for some horses over there.
