During a time of year in Europe where restricted 3-year-old opportunities at the pattern level have largely disappeared, Kentucky Downs has four stakes for that generation highlighted by the Listed Gun Runner Dueling Grounds Derby and the Exacta Systems Dueling Grounds Oaks over 2100 metres and worth $750,000 and $500,000, respectively. There are four black-type opportunities for 2-year-olds both colts and fillies over 6 1/2 furlongs and a mile with purses from $400,000 to $500,000, while the eight Group 2 and 3 2-year-old races during the same week in Britain, Ireland and France range from $80,000 to $170,000. Even maiden races at the meet are worth $90,000 and allowance races up to $100,000.

Nicholson reported business to be strong since the casino=s patrons were welcomed back on June 10. The ever-shrinking world of bloodstock trade means that Kentucky-breds are sprinkled across the globe, and Nicholson explained why the Kentucky Downs meeting is a lucrative opportunity for European horsemen to bring their Kentucky- breds back to their place of birth.

FIGHTING MAD CAPS FAVES FAIL TO SHOW ON SATURDAY, BUT EXCUSES ABOUND ANOTHER BIG WEEKEND The Week in Review, by T.D. Thornton This past Saturday wasn=t a great day to be a favorite in an FOR BAFFERT open stakes race at the nation=s premier race meets. Chalk horses went a collective one-for-seven at Saratoga and Del Mar, and the list of excuses included stutter-step starts, bumps leaving the gate, stretch-run roughhousing, getting disqualified, and being dueled into defeat in internal pace battles. Tight finishes in several stakes elevated the interest level, although the results in general did not lend clarity to the nationwide divisional races with the GI Kentucky Derby inside the five-week mark and the Breeders= Cup Championships now three months out. At the Spa, faves went zero-for-five, with the GI Personal Ensign S. setting the tone early in the day. Cont. p5

Week in Review cont. The win was a first Grade I triumph for both Vexatious and trainer Jack Sisterson, who also picked up his first career win at Saratoga in the Personal Ensign. Vexatious earned an automatic entry to the GI Breeders' Cup Distaff Nov. 7 at Keeneland, where Sisterson is primarily based. In the nine-furlong GI Whitney S., the 3-1 Improbable (City Zip), who has a history of getting hot and bothered in the starting gate, held up the start. The Bob Baffert trainee eventually settled down, but the delay might have contributed to the unraveling of even-money favorite Tom=s d=Etat (Smart Strike), who missed the break and came out four lengths behind the field. This altered the pace complexion of the Whitney, leaving 29-1 long shot Mr. Buff (Friend or Foe) sailing solo on the lead through soft splits with Improbable tracking in second and Tom=s d=Etat relegated to the back of the pack. Improbable, on his way to a 106 Beyer Speed Figure, swatted away Mr. Buff at will on the far turn, opening up by two lengths in the stretch under steady urging. By My Standards (Goldencents) picked up the pieces in second. Tom=s d=Etat checked in third, ending his four-race winning streak, but with an asterisk attached because of his trip woes.

The 7-1 upset by Echo Town (Speightstown) in the seven-furlong GI H. Allen Jerkens S. Presented by Runhappy didn=t at all seem fluky despite another favorite--the 2-1 No Parole (Violence)--faltering. The Jerkens was a deep 11-horse affair, and Echo Town broke with alacrity and was initially within three lengths of a hotly contested lead.
