    • Gamma they have amateur races, races with junior drivers concessions, no reason why races for trainers with less than 10 wins 5 wins, none in 6 months, anythings possible.
    • Due to an injury sustained in training, WinStar Farm and CHC Inc.'s multiple grade 1 winner Patch Adams will not be competing in the Breeders' Cup as planned and has been retired to WinStar Farm for the 2026 breeding season.View the full article
    • Can't work Mikey .They definitely need 2 separate meetings with quite different stakes. (one cheap , one twice as much) This is because if you run $15,000 maidens 9or support races)  at One meeting they will be dominated by Ray Green , and the Telfers and anyone like them that breeds and buys the expensive horses. they will chase the better prizemoney. At Cambridge for $8000 per race, they enter Way less horses and in recent weeks you see trainers Susan Branch, Owen Gillies (2 wins last week) and folk like that winning races. they're not a hope in hell of even running a place against the outstanding trainers that race on Friday nights at Alexandra Park.  They have to stay separate.  (Location) you can be sure some of the BIG stables would find something to pop in your lesser lights race for 8 or 9 if on the same program as your 15 k one. The battler (Doody, Chilcott , etc)  would get NO wins . (and it would be like the South Island lol 😂)  
    • Due to an injury sustained in training, WinStar Farm and CHC Inc.'s dual Grade I winner Patch Adams (Into Mischief–Well Humored, by Distorted Humor) will not be competing in the Breeders' Cup as planned and has been retired to WinStar Farm for the 2026 breeding season. A stud fee will be announced later. “Patch Adams had a straightforward lateral condylar fracture in his right hind that went back together extremely well, and he can race or breed without any notice of the fracture in 2026,” said Dr. Larry Bramlage of Rood and Riddle Equine Hospital. “He has an excellent prognosis.” Trained by Brad Cox, the 3-year-old reeled off back-to-back Grade I victories in the Woody Stephens Stakes and the H. Allen Jerkens Memorial Stakes. “The speed and heart he showed in the H. Allen Jerkens Memorial not only established himself as the leading 3-year-old sprinter in the country but drew a lot of attention from the breeding public and solidified our decision to stand him in 2026,” said Elliott Walden, president, CEO, and racing manager of WinStar Farm. “While he could still run at four, we have made the difficult decision to stick with our original plan to retire him.” His final time of 1:21.36 in the Woody Stephens stands as the fastest seven-furlong time by a colt at Saratoga during the 2025 season. Named a TDN Rising Star after winning his second career start at Churchill Downs by 10 1/2 lengths, Patch Adams stopped the clock for seven furlongs in a rapid 1:20.77, just 0.33 seconds shy of the track record set by two-time champion Groupie Doll back in 2012. “I've had good two-turn colts in my career like Essential Quality and Cyberknife, but Patch Adams is the fastest 3-year-old I have ever had,” said Brad Cox, a two-time Eclipse Award-winning trainer and currently the leading trainer in the country by earnings. “When he won by 10 lengths going seven furlongs in 1:20.77, I knew he would be a Grade I winner.” Patch Adams won four-of-seven lifetime starts–was undefeated (3-for-3) at seven furlongs–banked $772,585. Patch Adams is by perennial leading sire Into Mischief out of the stakes-winning Distorted Humor mare Well Humored. he hails from the family of Grade I winners Well Armed, Cyberknife, Played Hard and American Patriot. The bay was bred by WinStar. “Here at WinStar, we believe in speed,” said Walden. “We believe Patch Adams has the genetics, race record, conformation, and pedigree to make a top stallion prospect. Patch Adams was a fast 2-year-old and a very fast 3-year-old.” For more information on Patch Adams, contact Liam O'Rourke, Olivia Desch, or Ben Hanley at 859-873-1717, or visit www.WinStarFarm.com.
