A field of 11, led by Gun Runner S. winner Chip Honcho (Connect), will line up in Saturday's GIII Lecomte S. at Fair Grounds, good for 20-10-6-4-2 points on the Road to the Kentucky Derby. The Gun Runner was Chip Honcho's first try around two turns and third career start for Hall of Famer Steve Asmussen. The Leland Ackerley Racing colorbearer is drawn widest of all in post 11. The re-opposing Ohio-bred Crown the Buckeye (Yaupon), favored at 4-1 on the Lecomte morning-line, set the pace and tired late to finish third that day. Trainer Brad Cox will saddle a trio, including Calumet Farm homebred Thunder Buck (Gun Runner), a popular maiden winner at second asking over track and trip Dec. 20. “Based off pedigree and what he's shown us so far, the further the better for him,” Cox said. “I thought he had a good gallop out in his first run as well there (finishing fourth) at Keeneland (Oct. 16). The further they go, the better he's gonna get.” The rail-drawn Quality Mischief (Into Mischief), fourth at 25-1 in the Gun Runner; and White Tiger (Constitution), a maiden winner at second asking at Churchill Downs last time Oct. 26; round out the Cox trio. Golden Tempo (Curlin) heads right into the deep end for trainer Cherie DeVaux following a visually impressive last-to-first debut victory going six furlongs at Fair Grounds Dec. 20, good for 'TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard' honors. The stacked 13-race Lecomte program also features the GIII Louisiana S., topped by 8-5 morning-line favorite Just a Touch (Justify); and the Fasig-Tipton Silverbulletday S. for 3-year-old fillies.

needing a good sale... Lot 459 Proisir x Gracehill filly “I can't not mention the half-sister to Crocetti. I’m lucky enough to be vending her on behalf of Daniel Nakhle. It's a family that Daniel has developed very well through the likes of Irish Colleen, Crosshaven, Killarney, and Crocetti, who has won a Railway (Gr.1, 1200m) and 2000 Guineas (Gr.1, 1600m). She's a November foal, but you wouldn't think it. I think the guys from the New Zealand Bloodstock team are quite surprised with where she's got to now. She's a lovely filly going forward into the sale, and got that real residual value.” -

WinStar Farm's Heartland, a 'TDN Rising Star' son of Justify out of the Cat Thief mare Sambuca Classica and a half-brother to Classic Empire, sired his first reported foal on Friday, Jan. 16, when a colt out of I Love Nola (Champali) was born at Katierich Farm in Midway, Ky, the farm announced Friday. The colt, whose dam is a half-sister to stakes-placed Love Boot (Storm Boot), the dam of stakes winner and graded stakes-placed Made to Love Her (Steve Wonderboy), and hails from the family of multiple stakes winner True Love's Secret Desert Secret {Ire}), was bred by Rattner Bloodstock LLC. “Nice foal, strong, healthy 136-pound colt,” shared George Barnes of Katierich Farm. “If the rest of our foals look like this, we'll be in good shape.” Martha Rattner added, “He is a leggy colt with good bone and a great hip. He looks very much like Scat Daddy (sire of Justify) and we are thrilled with him. He is sentimental to us because we were the owners of Train Robbery (Cat Thief's dam) in her later years. Our farm is named after her and we are dedicated to taking her pedigree forward. We are thankful for the opportunity WinStar provided us for breeding I Love Nola to Heartland. We are also thankful for Katierich Farm and their excellent care with our broodmares. We have another mare in foal to Heartland that is due in April.” Owned by CHC Inc., Siena Farm, and WinStar Farm, and trained by Bob Baffert, Heartland was a $575,000 Keeneland September Yearling Sale graduate. He flashed his brilliance with a head-turning career debut at Del Mar at two to become a 'Rising Star', winning a 5 1/2-furlong maiden special weight and overcoming trouble at the start to win going away impressively by two lengths from Slider who captured the Speakeasy Stakes and placed in the GIII San Vicente Stakes in subsequent starts. Heartland's final clocking of 1:03.20 was the fastest time of any juvenile at the distance at Del Mar or Saratoga in 2023 and earned a 90 Beyer Speed Figure. Heartland bred 123 mares in his initial book and will stand the 2026 breeding season at WinStar Farm for $10,000 S&N.
