Ridden by Kent Desormeaux for his brother, trainer Keith Desormeaux, Exaggerator got away last in the six-horse field but gained on the backstretch through fast fractions on a main track rated sloppy. An early pace battle between favored Nyquist and American Freedom laid the groundwork for the Cur- lin colt to reel in the leaders and pull away to win his third grade I stakes. Exaggerator survived a claim of foul from jockey Rafael Bejarano aboard American Freedom. The Bob Baffert trainee put away Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands (gr.

Golden Horn, Gleneagles Slated to Finally Meet in Irish Champion The much anticipated matchup between star European miler GLENEAGLES (IRE) and fellow standout GOLDEN HORN (GB) appears set to finally take place Saturday in Leopardstown’s $1.33 million “Win and You’re In” QIPCO Irish Champion (GI), with an eight-horse field in place, and a berth in the Longines Breeders’ Cup Turf going to the winner. The Irish Champion is one of three Challenge races at Leopardstown and highlights a weekend that features 10 total “Win and You’re In” races, including the prestigious Ricoh Woodbine Mile (GI) Sunday. A rainy forecast for Friday has caused Leopardstown officials to move the Irish Champion to the outside course, and to start Saturday’s race about one hour earlier in the program. The connections of both Coolmore’s Gleneagles and Anthony Oppenheimer’s Golden Horn, the pair of 3-year-old standouts are expected to meet in the 1 ¼-mile race after the latter withdrew from a potential clash in the “Win and You’re In” Juddmonte International (GI) at York August 19 due to the soft turf.
