Welcome to...
[Held November 4th, 2006.]
TRACK/TURF: FAST/FIRM
WEATHER: CLOUDY W/ FLURRIES, 2*C
WIND: NEG.
The first race on today's card is the Bessemer Trust Breeder's Cup Juvenile, with a purse of $2 million. BITS's four top 2 year old colts have assembled on the track, each with a strong chance of coming out on top...
Bessemer Trust Breeder's Cup Juvenile (G1) 8.5f Dirt, 2yos. ($2 000 000)
POST POSITIONS / ODDS
1 Bismarck (Battlecry of Freedom), ridden by Kirk Jameson*, owned & trained by Maya Kenedy of CE. / 6-1
2 Mister Jones (Cool Runnings), owned by Jen of DEF, ridden by Valerie McCardy*, and trained by Maya Kenedy of CE. / 10-1
3 Portcullis (Cool Runnings), owned, trained & ridden by Maya Kenedy of CE. / 3-1
4 ISeekYou (Conversation Piece), owned by Gwen of SMHP, ridden by Ashley Kelley*, and trained by Maya Kenedy of CE. / 5-2
Bismarck was slow out of the gate, forced wide. Couldn't gain ground.
Mister Jones broke well, but couldn't keep up with the two leaders as they drew away.
ISeekYou & Portcullis duelled the whole way, seperated by a nose at the finish.
RESULTS
1st Portcullis (nose) [$600 000]
2nd ISeekYou (8 lengths) [$200 000]
3rd Mister Jones (1 length) [$120 000]
4th Bismarck [$60 000]
Next, we'll see the running of the Alberto V05 Breeder's Cup Juvenile Fillies, with BITS's 4 best ladies all vying for the title. Strongly favoured SEATTLE SYMPHONY looks good in the paddock, but will she run her best against the more experienced fillies in the field?
Alberto V05 Breeder's Cup Juvenile Fillies (G1) 8.5f Dirt, 2yo Fillies. ($2 000 000)
POST POSITIONS / ODDS
1 Afleet (Mr. Fleetwood), ridden by Valerie McCardy*, owned and trained by Maya Kenedy of CE. / 5-1
2 Rumrunna (Officer), ridden by Ashley Kelley*, owned and trained by Maya Kenedy of CE. / 9-1
3 Shisheido (Forty Niner), ridden by Kirk Jameson*, owned and trained by Maya Kenedy of CE. / 11-1
4 Seattle Symphony (Seattle Slew), owned by Evanthe of WLF, ridden by Braiden Thompson*, and trained by Maya Kenedy of CE. / 2-1
Shisheido & Rumrunna collided coming out of the gate, and couldn't catch up the ground they had lost, despite both closing very strongly.
Seattle Symphony stalked the whole way, tried to overtake coming down the stretch, but couldn't get up in time.
Afleet led wire to wire, and dug in to hold off challenger.
RESULTS
1st Afleet (3/4 length) [$600 000]
2nd Seattle Symphony (2 lengths) [$200 000]
3rd Shisheido (head) [$120 000]
4th Rumrunna [$60 000]
Congrats everyone! =)
All stakes horses will get a nice, long break until we start up again in December! =D
[No worries, though, there will be at least one maiden/allowance meet in November.]
