Orb will face Departing in Preakness, Freedom Child in Belmont
Another impressive 3-year-old has popped up outside the Triple Crown trail, even as final preparations were under way for the Preakness.It was a relatively quiet weekend in U.S. racing. But the action was hot and heavy across the water -- especially with a lot of 3-year-olds trying to run their way into the upcoming Epsom Derby and Epsom Oaks. And it was an interesting weekend for Rosie Napravnik -- on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean.Hop on board and let's start paddling.Those wacky 3-year-oldsCould this be one of those years when the best 3-year-olds did not run in the Kentucky Derby? It sure looked like one of those was on display Saturday in the $200,000, Grade II Peter Pan at Belmont Park.Freedom Child finished last in the Wood Memorial at Aqueduct, a race that produced Kentucky Derby fourth-place finisher Normandy Invasion. In that race, he was caught flat-footed at the start and never got into the mix. Saturday was a different story.With Luis Saez up for trainer Tom Albertrani, Freedom Child went right to the front and never looked back. At the wire, he was out front by 13 1/4 lengths. Saint Vigeur was second, Go Get the Basil third and Abraham fourth.Granted, the track was sloppy and the final time of 1:49.09 was unimpressive to say the least. And it was only his second win from six starts.But it's worth noting that in his second career outing, on Nov. 4 at Aqueduct, Freedom Child led from the start in a 1-mile maiden event and was only caught in deep stretch to finish second to -- Orb. Finishing third that day was Revolutionary, who was second to Orb in the Kentucky Derby. Like Orb, Freedom Child is by Malibu Moon."The last time he had a bad break," Saez said. "I just put him in the race and he responded perfect. In the chute he wanted to run, so I let him run.""I think we're going to the Belmont Stakes in about four weeks," added Terry Finley, president of West Point Thoroughbreds, part-owner of Freedom Child. "I hope Orb runs well in the Preakness and the whole world is watching for the Belmont Stakes. And I hope we upset the apple cart."Meanwhile, preparations for Saturday's Preakness Stakes at Pimlico, the second jewel of the Triple Crown, continued despite wet weather across the major racing centers. Orb, the Kentucky Derby winner, seeks to become only the 12th Triple Crown winner and the first since Affirmed in 1978 by adding the Preakness and the June 8 Belmont Stakes to his Kentucky Derby win.One of his likely opponents in the Preakness, Departing, also was a non-starter in the Kentucky Derby, instead detouring to Hawthorne Race Course where he was a convincing winner of the Grade III Illinois Derby. Departing worked a half mile in 50 2/5 seconds over a fast track at Churchill Downs Sunday morning. "He did enough to get the day off tomorrow," trainer Al Stall Jr. said. He is scheduled to ship to Pimlico Wednesday.Orb jogged over a muddy Belmont Park track Saturday morning and was scheduled to work a half mile Monday. Goldencents, 17th in the Run for the Roses, stretched his legs in the slop Saturday at Pimlico. Sunland Derby winner Govenor (cq) Charlie waited until after the renovation break at Churchill Downs and the track was upgraded to "good" for his 1 1/2-mile gallop. Itsmyluckyday, 15th in the Kentucky Derby, worked a half mile in 47 1/5 seconds between the third and fourth races Sunday afternoon at Monmouth Park. The work was rescheduled by special permission after weather forced cancellation of Saturday training hours. "He went awesome, but that's him," trainer Eddie Plesa Jr. said. "I couldn't ask for a better work."Trainer Tom Amoss confirmed Saturday that Mylute, the fifth-place finisher in the Kentucky Derby, will be a starter this coming weekend in the second jewel of the Triple Crown. That means jockey Rosie Napravnik, who started her riding career at Pimlico in 2005 at the age of 17, will be coming home for the race. "I promise you there is no other jockey who wants to win the Preakness more than me," Napravnik tweeted after the announcement. She will be the third female rider in the race, following Patti Cooksey, who finished sixth on Tajawa in 1985, and Andrea Seefeldt, who was seventh with Looming in 1994.All three of trainer D. Wayne Lukas's Preakness starters -- Oxbow, Titletown Five and Will Take Charge -- had light work on the Churchill Downs strip and are slated to van to Baltimore on Tuesday.Spice Sense, the fifth-place finisher in the Illinois Derby, Saturday was ruled out of the Preakness after a work at Arlington Park. "There's nothing wrong with him. He's just not quite seasoned enough yet and it's a tough race,[url=http://www.yubikeys.net/]true religion sale[/url]," trainer Greg Geier said. And Normandy Invasion, who finished fourth in the Kentucky Derby, will not run in the Preakness, trainer Chad Brown said Sunday.Vyjack, who beat only Falling Sky in the Derby, remains on the fence as a potential Preakness runner.Speaking of Napravnik's exciting weekend -- she also was named to ride in the "all girls" team in the Dubai Duty Free Shergar Cup at Ascot on Aug. 10. The competition also features a "rest of the world" team to be headed by Gary Stevens. Those teams will challenge Team Europe and Team Great Britain and Ireland.Elsewhere:Hollywood ParkCharlie Em was first to the lead in the stretch run of Saturday's $100,000, Grade III Senorita Stakes for 3-year-old fillies and the odds-on favorite, Scarlet Strike, couldn't quite catch her. At the wire, Charlie Em held on to win by a head with Kyriaki third. Charlie Em, a British-bred daughter of Kheleyf out of the Pivotal mare Miss Meggy, got 1 mile on firm turf in 1:35.18 with Garrett Gomez in the irons. She spent her 2-year-old season in England and on the Continent, compiling a record of three wins from eight starts. The Senorita was her first U.S. start. "It took her a little while, but she came around in the last five weeks," winning trainer Paddy Gallagher said. "She got rid of her winter coat and started acting and training nice. She breezed a couple of times on the grass and seemed to go nice."WoodbineAlpha Bettor got the better of odds-on favorite Delegation to win Sundays' $200,000 (Canadian), Grade II Eclipse Stakes by a neck. James Street was only a head farther back in third. Alpha Bettor is a 5-year-old son of Alphabet Soup, who beat Cigar in the 1996 Breeders' Cup Classic at Woodbine. He finished Sunday's 1 1/16 miles on the all-weather track in 1:42.69. He had not been worse than fourth in six intervening starts since getting home seventh in last year's Eclipse Stakes. "I had a perfect trip. I had to wait a little longer than I wanted to, but it worked out for the better," said winning rider Justin Stein. "Everyone was asking their horses to run and I was able to save a little more horse and it made the difference." Black Hornet led from the early going in Saturday's $150,000 (Canadian) Queenston Stakes for 3-year-olds and went on to post the upset win by a length over Jagger M. The favorite, Dynamic Sky, finished third. Black Hornet, a Pioneering gelding out of the Siphon mare Start Stinging, ran 7 furlongs on the all-weather track in 1:21.44, also with Stein riding. It was his second win from six starts. Dynamic Sky returned home after an abortive trip down the Triple Crown trail, finishing ninth in the Grade I Toyota Blue Grass Stakes at Keeneland in his last U.S. start. "He's a really fast horse, speed oriented, and he has a lot of stamina as well and he used that to his advantage," Stein said. "He was really settled in the early stages of the race, and when I asked him to run on down the lane he really kicked for me."Belmont ParkPercussion went to the lead right away in Sunday's $90,[url=http://www.yubikeys.net/]true religion outlet[/url],000 Albert the Great Stakes, was hooked by Fast Falcon in a long stretch duel and finally prevailed by a nose over that rival.

The last colt to win both the Chester Vase and the Epsom Oaks was the immortal Shergar in 1981.As usual,[url=http://www.kbcrussia.com/]true religion outlet[/url], O'Brien has no shortage of good horseflesh in his care and demonstrated that again Friday as he sent out Magician to the easiest of wins in the Group 3 Dee Stakes at Chester. Another Galileo product and also with Moore in the irons, Magician made his four rivals disappear in the final furlong, winning off by 4 lengths. Contributer was second and Glacial Age finished third. The 1 mile, 2 1/2 furlongs went in 2:12.96 over turf rated good to soft.

Trainer Christophe Clement said he is eyeing the French Derby and the St. James's Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot as possible next stop for his winner.Epsom Oaks prepsIt's "all hail" Secret Gesture. The filly was the easiest of winners Saturday in Lingfield's Oaks Trial -- as a pelting rain turned to hail. After racing in touch with the leaders under Jim Crowley, the Galileo filly hit another gear a furlong out and was 10 lengths in front at the finish. Miss You Too was the best of the rest with Whippy Cream third. It was Secret Gesture's first win after a second-place showing at Leicester in her first start. "I'm thrilled she did it the way she did it," trainer Ralph Beckett said. "Better than we'd hoped." The filly's Oaks odds dropped faster than a falling hailstone with British bookmakers.In Sunday's Group 1 Poule d'Essai des Pouliches, Flotilla got to the front in the late going and won by a neck over Esoterique.
