    • The New York Racing Association has canceled live racing Oct. 12 at Aqueduct Racetrack due to a powerful coastal storm forecast to bring extremely high winds and heavy rainfall to the New York City metropolitan area.View the full article
    • and what about Lieca Lucy - huge run.  Certainly franked the NZ Oaks form that Auckland are trying to steal!
    • The 83 Great Northern Derby is on you tube, check it if you want gee how much has the TV coverage improved but in those days races were mainly a one off, I suspect that  race might have been run during the Interdoms.
    • Unlucky 6th, no room in the straight then line taken by Lazurra as she finally got space.   Coming again at the line, so maybe she could have got 3rd, certainly not outclassed as has been suggested elswhere  
    • Undefeated no more. LUSH LIPS (GB) (f, 3, Ten Sovereigns {Ire}–Lamyaa {GB}, by Arcano {Ire}) hit the final sixteenth in front and refused to let the previously undefeated Laurelin (Ire) (Zarak {Fr}) reel her back in en route to glory in the GI Queen Elizabeth II Challenge Cup Stakes at Keeneland Saturday. Sitting cozy behind the front-running Opulent Restraint (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}), the 8-1 shot simply waited for that rival to come back to her with less than a quarter mile to go and inherited a winning advantage over Laurelin who was charging in the final yards but was never going to get by in the end. After just missing by a half-length in the GI Del Mar Oaks, this is the first Grade I win for Lush Lips. Lifetime Record: 10-4-4-0.
