No one would have faulted Locked for losing Saturday's $261,000 Woodward (G2), not after the field was reduced to three.

Rebel's Romance and El Cordobes will turn in their final prep for the Breeders' Cup Turf (G1) on Saturday at Aqueduct in the $500,000 Joe Hirsch Turf Classic (G1) over 1 1/2 miles.

New Century has shown to be a cut or two below top class in England, but he's a proven Grade 1 performer in North America.

On a stakes-packed Saturday at Santa Anita, Locked impressed with an 8 1/2-length demolition of the historic Santa Anita H. (G1).

Remsen (G2) hero Dornoch was the last major contender standing after a flurry of scratches decimated Saturday’s Fountain of Youth (G2), and the 1-5 favorite got the job done .

The form of the Remsen (G2) has been flattered on a regular basis since it was run in early December. The winner of that race, Dornoch, might continue the trend in his season reappearance Saturday in the $400,000 Fountain of Youth (G2) at Gulfstream Park.

An eye-catching rally carried Sierra Leone to victory in Saturday’s Risen Star (G2) at Fair Grounds and to favoritism in Kentucky Derby Future Wager Pool 4.

The outcome of Kentucky Derby Future Wager Pool 3 bore a striking resemblance to Pool 2, with “All Other Three-Year-Olds” the overall favorite and Fierceness the top individual choice.

Fierceness displayed complete authority over what seemed an evenly-matched group of colts and geldings in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile (G1).
