HALLANDALE BEACH - Including nearly half the pre-entries for the $7 million Classic...

HALLANDALE BEACH - Including nearly half the pre-entries for the $7 million Classic (G1), Gulfstream Park once again finds itself well-represented in the 43rd Breeders’ Cup World Championships.

A total of 255 pre-entries for the Breeders’ Cup Oct. 30 and 31 at Keeneland were announced Wednesday including 222 individual horses, both event records.

The 1 ¼-mile Classic drew 11 pre-entries led by defending champion Forever Young. Five of his rivals have Gulfstream connections including Hall of Fame trainer Bill Mott stablemates Knightsbridge and Sovereignty.

Knightsbridge won the Mr. Prospector (G3), Fred Hooper (G3) and Gulfstream Park Mile (G3) during the 2025-2026 Championship Meet and has since won two more stakes including the Aug. 22 Pacific Classic (G1) in his most recent start. Sovereignty won the Fountain of Youth (G2) and was second in the Florida Derby (G1) to launch his 2025 Horse of the Year campaign.

Gulfstream’s perennial leading trainer Saffie Joseph Jr. pre-entered Forged Steel in both the Classic and $1 million Dirt Mile (G1). Forged Steel made eight of his first 10 career starts at Gulfstream, five of them on turf, and earned an automatic spot in the field with his victory in the Sept. 26 Goodwood (G1) at Santa Anita under Gulfstream-based jockey Edwin Gonzalez.

Other Classic contenders with Gulfstream ties are Napoleon Solo, fifth to open his 3-year-old season in the Feb. 28 Fountain of Youth before going on to win the Preakness (G1), Middle Jewel of the Triple Crown, May 16 at Laurel Park; and The Puma, winner of the Pennsylvania Derby (G1) and Tampa Bay Derby (G3) who ran second in his Jan. 10 unveiling and the March 28 Florida Derby at Gulfstream. Both horses are also pre-entered in the Dirt Mile.

In addition to Forged Steel, Knightsbridge and Napoleon Solo, Dirt Mile pre-entries include Full Serrano, third-place finisher in the $3 million Pegasus World Cup (G1) Jan. 24.

Burnham Square and Test Score were both pre-entered in the $5 million Breeders’ Cup Turf (G1). Burnham Square, trained by Ian Wilkes, ran second in an optional claiming allowance on the Fountain of Youth undercard Feb. 28 before going on to reel off four consecutive wins, all in stakes, three of them graded led by the Aug. 1 Arlington Million (G1). Test Score began his 4-year-old season with a victory in the $1 million Pegasus World Cup Turf (G1) Jan. 24 over Graham Motion-trained stablemate One Stripe.

Among the pre-entries in the $2 million Breeders’ Cup Distaff (G1) are Eunomia and Nitrogen. Trained by Hall of Famer Mark Casse, Nitrogen opened her 2025 3-year-old filly championship season with a victory in Gulfstream’s Ginger Brew going a mile on the grass – the first of nine career stakes wins, eight graded, including Grade 1s on turf and dirt. Joseph-trained Eunomia got her 2026 season under way running third to stablemate Claret Beret in Gulfstream’s Feb. 14 Royal Delta (G3) and most recently won the Clement Hirsch (G1) Aug. 1 at Del Mar.

Casse-trained 4-year-old filly Classic Q was pre-entered in the $2 million Breeders’ Cup Mile (G1) and $2 million Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Turf. After finishing 12th in the Pegasus Filly & Mare Turf (G2) Jan. 24, she was beaten less than a length in the Feb. 28 Honey Fox (G3) and since won three graded-stakes including the Just a Game (G1) and First Lady (G1) last out Oct. 3 at Keeneland.

Other Mile pre-entrants include Pegasus Turf veterans Cabo Spirit and Formidable Man, while among the pre-entered Filly & Mare Turf field is a pair of Brendan Walsh trainees – Expensive Queen, a Jan. 18 optional claiming allowance winner at Gulfstream that won Keeneland’s Jenny Wiley (G1) two starts later; and 2026 Honey Fox winner Lush Lips, undefeated in three career Gulfstream starts.

Joseph, winner of the $1 million Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Sprint (G1) with eventual 2024 champion Soul of an Angel, will have a pair of contenders this year in Kerry’s Kiss and R Disaster. Kerry’s Kiss has put together three straight wins since being privately purchased, all in Gulfstream stakes, capped by the Sept. 12 Princess Rooney (G3) that earned her an automatic berth. R Disaster was a front-running winner of the Hurricane Bertie (G3) March 7, later winning the Derby City Distaff (G1) in Kentucky and Gallant Bloom (G2) in New York.

Also pre-entered in the Filly & Mare Sprint was two-time Grade 1-winning millionaire and leading contender Ways and Means, who ran second in the 2024 Gulfstream Park Oaks (G2) in her third career start and first as a 3-year-old.

Joseph’s fifth and final Breeders’ Cup pre-entrant comes in the $1 million Turf Sprint (G1) – In Our Time, who ran third in the 2025 Pegasus Filly & Mare Turf and ninth this year before being cut back to one-turn where she most recently won the Kentucky Downs Ladies Turf Sprint (G1) Aug. 29. Shisospicy, trained by Gulfstream-based Jose D’Angelo, was pre-entered to defend her title from last fall at Del Mar. Pre-entrant Possiblemente won the 2024 Sabal Palm overnight handicap on Gulfstream’s all-weather Tapeta course.

In the $2 million Breeders’ Cup Sprint (G1), July 26 Bing Crosby (G1) winner Listenupshance was fourth in a June 2025 maiden claimer at Gulfstream for original trainer Luis Gonzalez, and Roll On Big Joe graduated in January 2023 and won an optional claiming allowance in March 2024 at Gulfstream. Second on the also-eligible list is multiple graded-stakes winner Mad House, who has trained since mid-May primarily at Palm Meadows, Gulfstream’s satellite training facility in Palm Beach County.

Yaupon Filly Breaks Her Maiden in the Mud

Wednesday, October 21, 2026

So Icy was a $700,000 March 2yo . . .

HALLANDALE BEACH - Morplay Racing, Sonata Stable, Denali Stud, Marquee Bloodstock and KAS Ultimate Racing’s So Icy turned in a thoroughly professional debut performance at Gulfstream Park, looking well worth her $700,000 purchase price.

The 2-year-old daughter of Yaupon broke on top in Race 8, a six-furlong maiden special weight for juvenile fillies, before settling into a stalking position behind pacesetter Practical Bling on the backstretch and into the far turn during a :22.09-second first quarter of a mile over a muddy track.

So Icy advanced steadily on the turn into the homestretch under jockey Leonel Reyes, taking over the lead at the top of the stretch following a :45.83-second half-mile. The Kentucky-bred filly, who was purchased at the OBS March 2-year-olds-in-training sale, drew off to a clear lead in the stretch with only mild urging to prevail over runner-up Street Queen by a comfortable length.

By Yaupon out of the unraced Candy Ride mare Tempered, So Icy prepped for her debut with seven works since early August at Palm Meadows, Gulfstream’s satellite training facility in Palm Beach County.

“She’s a nice filly. Very smart,” said trainer Jose D’Angelo, noting that So Icy acted up somewhat when she took to the track for the first time and was briefly reluctant to enter the starting gate. “Everything was new to her. After she loaded, she broke like she broke at Palm Meadows.”

So Icy ran six furlongs in 1:11.44 over a track turned muddy by heavy showers. D’Angelo has no immediate goals for the promising filly. “She’ll tell us when she’s ready, and we’ll go from there,” D’Angelo said.

Strong Field of Juveniles Spice Gulfstream Card

Friday, October 16, 2026

Promising 2yos meet in race 5 . . .

HALLANDALE BEACH - Live racing action resumes at Gulfstream Park today when the Sunshine Meet continues with a nine-race program offering a look at some intriguing prospects entered in a strong field of juvenile maidens.

A full sister to Grade 1 winner Blazing Sevens will debut in Race 5, a five-furlong maiden special weight on turf that attracted a 10-horse field with several promising 2-year-olds. Seven of Hearts, whose brother Blazing Sevens won the 2022 Champagne (G1) and finished second in the 2023 Preakness Stakes (G1), is scheduled to debut for Hall of Fame trainer Mark Casse. The daughter of Good Magic is priced at 6-1 on the morning line and will break from the No. 11 post under Edwin Gonzalez. Casse will also be well represented by Sass Sass, a daughter of War of Will, who debuted with a third-place finish behind multiple-stakes winner Liberty Rings and next-out-winner Pros and Cons in the Royal Palm Juvenile.

Favored at 3-1 on the morning line is Saffie Joseph Jr.-trained Rhett Dreams, a daughter of Jack Christopher who sold for $260,000 at the OBS June sale. She will seek to rebound under Michah Husbands from a tough-trip debut at Kentucky Downs. Trainer Rohan Crichton-trained Eager Gal, a daughter of Highly Motivated, is slated to debut off a series of sharp workouts. Well-bred daughters of Golden Pal, Mitole and Speaker’s Corner are also entered to debut in Race 5.

In Race 7, a mile maiden special weight for 3-year-old fillies on turf, David Fawkes-trained Intricity, a daughter of Complexity favored at 9-5 on the morning line, will seek to rebound from a troubled beaten-favorite effort on Tapeta while returning to turf. Dale Romans-trained Knows Everything hasn’t been far behind Complexity at the finish in her last two starts. Jose D’Angelo-trained Kokomo Kitty, a daughter of Uncle Chuck who has raced evenly while finishing third in her two starts on dirt, has been working forwardly on Tapeta and turf in preparation for her turf debut.

Michael Yates-trained Finding Strength is slated to make her 2026 debut in Friday’s Race 8 feature, a six-furlong optional claiming allowance for fillies and mares on Tapeta. The 3-year-old daughter of Khozan closed out her 2-year-old campaign with a pair of stakes placings, including a tough beat in the Florida Sire Stakes Desert Vixen, in which he lost by a nose to multiple-stakes winner Lennilu.

Finding Strength sports a series of sharp works for her return to action.

“The main objective is to get her back to the races. That’s always the hurdle to overcome when horses are coming off layoffs, and I feel like we’ve done enough with her that she’s ready to lead over there,” Yates said. “I feel like she’ll run competitively. The Tapeta is obviously a question mark. She’s never raced on it. We haven’t actually breezed her on it, but she’s galloped on it and the way she’s training, we’re looking for a really good effort.”

Joseph-trained Barakah, a daughter of Speightstown, is scheduled to make her first start since debuting with an off-the-pace victory on Tapeta March 29. Casse will be represented by Ocala Gala, a daughter of Code of Honor who returns to Tapeta as the 5-2 morning-line favorite, over which she graduated prior to a trio of even efforts on turf.

Races 5, 7 and 8 are included in Friday’s 20-cent Rainbow 6 sequence that will span Races 4-9. The popular multi-race wager starts anew Friday following last Sunday’s mandatory payout of the jackpot pool.

Races 7 and 8 are included in the sequence for Friday’s Sunset 6, while Race 8 will kick off the sequence for the 1/ST Coast-To-Coast Pick 5. Both retail-only multi-race wagers have a $1 base with a 15-percent takeout.

The Sunset Six, combining races from Gulfstream and Santa Anita, will get underway with Races 7, 8 and 9 at Gulfstream Park, followed by Santa Anita’s Races 7, 8 and 9.

The Coast-To-Coast Pick 5 will get underway at 4:04 p.m. ET with Race 8 at Gulfstream, followed by GP’s Race 9 and will be closed out by Santa Anita’s Races 3, 4, and 5.

The Championship Meet, the winter home of Thoroughbred racing’s most accomplished horses, trainers and jockeys, will begin Thanksgiving Day, November 26 and run through March 28.

The Pegasus World Cup Championship Invitational Series has welcomed legendary Thoroughbred racehorses including Arrogate (Longines 2016 World’s Best Racehorse and inaugural 2017 Pegasus World Cup Invitational winner), two-time Horse of the Year California Chrome, and Horses of the Year Gun Runner, Knicks Go and Bricks and Mortar; Preakness (G1) winner National Treasure; Breeders’ Cup Mile (G1) winner City of Light and Kentucky Derby (G1) winner Mystik Dan.

The final purses of the Pegasus World Cup Invitational, Pegasus World Cup Turf Invitational and Pegasus Filly & Mare Turf Invitational (G2) will be announced shortly.

“We are finalizing the purse structure for the 2027 Pegasus World Cup and evaluating a few opportunities around the event that could impact the final purse,” said Mike Rogers, Executive Vice President of 1/ST Racing. “Rather than delay the release of the overall Gulfstream Park stakes schedule, we felt it was better to publish the schedule now and list the Pegasus purses as to-be-determined. We expect to announce the final purses shortly.”

Prep races for Pegasus Day will take place Dec. 26 with the $200,000 Fort Lauderdale (G3), $150,000 Harlan’s Holiday (G3) and $150,000 Suwannee River. The $150,000 Mucho Macho Man for 2-year-olds and the $150,000 Ginger Bew for 2-year-old fillies will also be featured.

The $1 million EquiTrack Florida Derby, which has produced four of the last 11 Kentucky Derby winners and a total of 26 overall winners, will be part of Gulfstream’s popular 3-year-old series that includes the Jan. 23 Holy Bull (G3) and the Feb. 27 Fountain of Youth (G2). Holy Bull Day will offer five stakes, two graded, with purses totaling $850,000. Fountain of Youth Day will offer nine stakes, eight graded, with total purses of $1.8 million while the Florida Derby will be one of 10 stakes, five graded, with total purses of $2.45 million.

Gulfstream will also offer 3-year-old fillies a road to the Kentucky Oaks (G1) with the Forward Gal (G3) Jan. 23, Davona Dale (G2) Feb. 27, and Gulfstream Park Oaks (G2) March 27.

Some of the best turf horses in North America will once again be showcased over Gulfstream’s course. Along with the Pegasus World Cup Invitational Turf and Pegasus Filly & Mare Turf Invitational, turf races on Pegasus Day include the W.L. McKnight (G3), Christophe Clement (G3), and Gulfstream Park Turf Sprint.

There will be six turf stakes – five graded – on Fountain of Youth Day. They are the Mac Diarmida (G2), Canadian Turf (G3), Honey Fox (G3), The Very One (G3), Herecomesthebride (G3) and Colonel Liam.

Florida Derby Day will also feature six turf stakes. They are the Pan American (G3), Orchid (G3), Appleton, Sand Springs, Sanibel Island and Cutler Bay.

Opening Day of the Championship Meet will also feature two turf stakes for juveniles – the $100,000 Wait a While for fillies and the $100,000 Pulpit. Both will be run at 7 1/2 furlongs.

OBS October Sale Shows Gains - Again

Thursday, October 8, 2026

Overall gross tops $6.7 million . . .

Fueled by the appeal and aptitude of Florida-based connections, the Ocala Breeders’ Sales Co. wrapped up the 2026 edition of its October Yearling Sale with gains in average and median as the two-day exercise concluded.

Despite mother nature being less than welcoming with rainy conditions drenching the sale grounds both Tuesday and Wednesday, the buying base persevered in producing results that highlighted added strength in the middle and lower sections of the market. With 42 fewer horses sold and 69 fewer horses catalogued, the overall gross of $6,775,500 generated by 267 head was down from the $7,509,700 produced in 2025 when a total of 309 horses changed hands. At the close of business Wednesday, the average came in at $25,376 compared to $24,303 in 2025 while the median improved from $15,000 last year to $17,000 this sale.

The rate of horses not sold for the sale came in at 26.2 percent compared to 25.5 percent in 2025.

A commonality linking both October sessions was the fact they were highlighted by those carrying the banner for one of Florida’s signature industries. The sale’s highest priced offering came on Tuesday when Hip 12, a homebred filly by Girvin consigned by Ocala-based Glen Hill Farm, sold for $190,000 to agent Marette Farrell on behalf of CJ Thoroughbreds. On Wednesday, Florida-bred Pappacap had his turn in the spotlight as Hip 339, a bay colt by the Walmac stallion, topped the session when he sold to trainer Saffie Joseph Jr. for $140,000.

Bred and consigned by Francis and Barbara Vanlangendonck’s Summerfield, the Pappacap colt ended up as the sale’s second highest priced offering and added to the appeal of his first-crop sire. Tuesday’s session saw Hip 120, another bay colt by Pappacap, bring the sale’s third-highest overall price when he sold for $120,000 to Willow Creek Ranch, and Joseph pointed to the stallion stamping his offspring with top physical attributes as a reason behind his decision to stretch for the newest member of his stable.

“Obviously Pappacap was precocious. He won at Del Mar (the Best Pal) and was second in the Juvenile and then he carried on to run in the Florida Derby against (Joseph trainee and OBS graduate) White Abarrio, so we’re very familiar with the horse,” said Joseph, who led all buyers for the October Sale with 12 head purchased for $522,000. “He was a solid horse, and you feel like he’ll make a stallion. We’re banking on it because we’ve bought a lot of them. We bought them because to the eye, they fit the look that we want.

“This colt is the most expensive one I’ve bought this sale,” Joseph continued. “We liked him a lot…and obviously there was competition to get him. It was deservedly so because this horse is a really nice horse, very smooth with the way he carried himself. It seems like he’s going to continue to get better.”

The Pappacap colt is out of the winning Uncaptured mare Bosworthy, a half sister to stakes winner and producer It’s High Time and multiple stakes winner Let Them Watch, an OBS October graduate.

“We knew that people liked him but you never know what people are going to pay. Obviously, we’re very happy with what he brought,” Francis Vanlangendonck said. “There were a lot of people interested in him and he looked just like his mother, and she could really run. We were going to sell him as a weanling but decided to wait and put him here, hoping he would stand out and that they would like the Pappacaps.

“I did the breeding (for Pappacap)…so we were very involved with him, went to all his races with his owners. But people really like Pappacaps because they’re all really athletic. This colt brought more than we thought, which is fabulous. We’re thrilled.”

The session’s second-highest priced horse was another product of the stellar Glen Hill Farm breeding program. Hip 311, a bay filly by Oscar Performance out of the Candy Ride (ARG) mare Aspening, sold to owner Gary Barber for $100,000.

The Oscar Performance filly is a half sister to stakes winner and graded stakes placed Aspenite and hails from the female family of Glen Hill’s graded stakes winners Diversy Harbor, Keertana, and Snow Top Mountain.

“It’s a good family. I thought she was a nice horse. (Trainer) Mark Casse saw her for the first time today and loved her,” said Craig Bernick, president of Glen Hill Farm. “I told a few people the reserve was $100,000 and (Casse) bought her. I would have thought she would have made more but the main thing is she’s going to a very good trainer and a very good owner. We still have the mother; we have the sister and a lot of the family. They made a good buy and she’s going to a good person.”

In addition to being responsible for the session topper, Pappacap had the day’s third-highest price horse when Hip 272, a bay colt by the stallion, sold to NdM Bloodstock for $80,000. Consigned by Potrero Stables, the colt is out of the winning Unbridled’s Song mare True Love Is Yare and is from the female family of Grade 1 winner and producer Tranquility Lake.

For Wednesday’s session, the gross receipts of $3,093,500 from 129 head sold was slightly down compared to the 149 sold for $3,947,100 during last year’s corresponding session. The session average came in at $23,981 compared to $26,491 in 2025 with a median of $15,000 compared to $19,000 last year.

Lisa McGreevy’s Abbie Road Farm led all consignors by gross for the October sale with 42 head sold for $816,500.
