Preakness S. cont. Having drawn the one hole, there was always going to be a fair amount of strategizing for Baffert and Espinoza. When the rains came, the pilot filed a new flight plan. AAll changed with the rain, but it worked out well,@ he explained. AI had to bounce out of the gate to take the lead with all the rain. I took a chance and sent him as quick as I can. Sometimes you have to make decisions. That's my job. Today, I made the right decision.@ With the speedy Dortmund drawn alongside and Mr. Z in the three hole, Espinoza had American Pharoah under the proverbial gun and the colt was fast enough to outfoot Mr. Z under the wire for the first time. Dortmund was relegated to third position, while the major development in the second half of the field involved Firing Line, who stumbled out of the gate, could not get a prominent spot and raced four deep into the clubhouse turn. Meanwhile, back on the business end, Espinoza was throwing all caution to the wind and was able to clear Mr. Z, though they had to go the opening quarter in :22.90 to do so. They raced past the 5 1/2-furlong pole in a crisp :46.49, positions largely unchanged, though GIII Coolmore Lexington S. winner Divining Rod had gotten down inside and raced up to within about five lengths of American Pharoah. Things appeared to be getting interesting at the half-mile pole, as American Pharoah=s advantage had all but melted away, with Mr. Z prompting right at his saddle cloth and Dortmund poised three deep as the far-turn run loomed. Divining Rod was also still going well while saving ground and it looked like the stage was set for something special for the final 45 seconds. But with an internal quarter in :24.93, American Pharoah had something left and began to inch clear again three- eighths of a mile down, Dortmund was making hard work of it for and Divining Rod loomed the only real danger. Still confidently handled at the quarter pole, American Pharoah widened his advantage into the final eighth of a mile and was shown the whip while winning with total authority. Divining Rod tired in the final 150 yards and was caught by longshot Belmont S.-bound Tale of Verve for second. Cont. p6

Singapore International Racing Festival cont. Military Attack was free of excuses when beaten 3 1/4 lengths here last year and it has been something of a frustrating year for him since joining the barn of Caspar Fownes. He owns a single victory over 1600 meters from his five starts and has acted like a horse whose age may be catching up to him. He was most recently seventh in the G1 Queen Elizabeth II Cup at Sha Tin Apr. 26, but possesses the inherent class to bounce back here. No locally based runner has been successful in the SAI Cup since Ouzo (NZ) in 2000, but Stepitup (Aus) (Hussonet) will represent perhaps the best chance of righting that wrong. Winner of 10 of his 25 starts, the 5-year-old has rounded into his best form of late and dove home late to best Singapore Gold Cup hero Quechua (Arg) (Pure Prize) in the Queen Elizabeth II Cup at Kranji Apr. 26, with Wild Geese (GB) (Exceed and Excel {Aus}) a close fourth.
