Fort Erie (Ontario):
Ellis (Kentucky):
Fort Erie (Ontario):
- Handle: The Father's Day card handled $1.7 million which was 189% better than last year.
- Handle: More than $11 million.
- Irad Ortiz, Jr. added two wins early and at one point had won seven of 11 races beginning yesterday.
- Race 10: The $1 Pick 6 paid over $63,000 after a 32-to-1 shot won the finale.
- Race Day: This is the only Sunday the track will race during the extensive 2023 meet. Happy Father's Day! Parx is one of a few tracks that operates12 months a year.
- Race 8: Bosserati (Sheldon Russell/Brittany Russell) was sent off near 5-to-1 odds yet won the $100,000 Stormy Blues Stakes in a gate-to-wire triumph. An objection was lodged but quickly nullified. The winning filly switched from dirt and is a perfect 3-for-3 on turf with three straight wins. The winning rider held the couple's child while conducting a post-race interview on Fathers' Day. The couple has won four of their six rides when teamed the past three days.
Ellis (Kentucky):
- Race 7: Necker Island (Mitchell Murrill/Chris Hartman) won the $225,000 Mighty Beau Stakes in a reduced field of three (off the turf) yet as the longest shot on the board at under 2-to-1.
- Meet: Closing day. Juan Hernandez (jockey) and Phil D'Amato (trainer) won their respective categories.
- Handle and Pick 6: $17.1 million was handled including more than $3.7 million added into the Pick 6 in which multiple winners collected over $11,000 each.
- Race 2: Muth (Juan Hernandez/Bob Baffert) was purchased by Amr Zedan at auction for $2 million and looked every bit as advertised in winning his maiden race by more than 8 lengths.
- Race 8: Sir Atticus (Mike Smith/John Shirreffs) won the MSW in a race that Bob Baffert sent out three starters.

He was on board two of the most heart-wrenching Triple Crown races and for very different reasons: Barbaro's demise and Birdstone's upset of Smarty Jones.
Every single insider, while just a handful. who has mentioned Prado in my company has nothing but praise for him. Humble among other words described.
Hopefully he has a long and peaceful retirement.

I thought they cancelled the 2004 Belmont. I don't recall that race ever taking place.

Royal Ascot (England)
- Jonathan Thomas sent out five horses and four returned winners. He was 3-for-4 in Minnesota and won with his lone starter at Indiana.
- Paco Lopez dazzled with a 6-win performance. He finished 8 6-1-1. He did not ride in the first two races.
Canterbury (Minnesota):- Card: Six stakes out of nine races and $400,000 in purse money.
- Handle: Nearly $3 million.
- Florent Geroux-Jonathan Thomas teamed three times and won each race. Geroux finished 5 3-1-1.
- Race 8: Golden Bandit (Adam Beschizza/Coty Rosin) won the $100,000 Canterbury Derby.
Royal Ascot (England)
- Event: Day two of five race days this week.
- Race 1: Crimson Advocate (John Velazquez/George Weaver) won the opener. That's one for the US. Twenty-six horses raced.
- Race 2: A $13,000+ tri topped by a $75.90 winner.
- Race 4: Mostahdaf (Jim Crowley/John & Thady Gosden) won the $1.2 million Prince of Wales stakes which is one of four Breeders' Cup invitation races. The $26.20 winner offered the second longest set of odds.
- Race 5: Jimi Hendrix (Rossa Ryan/Ralph Beckett) defeated 29 challengers including runner-up Sonny Liston (Ryan Moore/Ralph Beckett) in what has to be among the most memorable days in the life of the trainer whose horses went off at 23-to-1 and 32-to-1. The winner paid $48.60. It was the largest field through two days (30 horses, the #1 scratched). The losing rider in the race had his choice of either horse according to the trainer who said afterwards regarding his 1-2 performance "You couldn’t make it up, really." Ryan said "Ralph is a genius" of the trainer who won at Royal Ascot for the fourth time lifetime.
- Race 6: Gregory (Frankie Dettori/John & Thady Gosden) gave the legendary 52-year-old rider his 78th win at Royal Ascot in what is labeled his farewell year at the event. He was issued a suspension from the first day of this event but though that will be honored universally that ban will not begin until next month.
- Irish Foals: Five winners.
- Winning Foals by Nation (through two days): Ireland 8, England 4, USA 1, France 1.
- Big Paydays: I don't think there are Pick 5 bets at Ascot but let the mind wander with these winners:
- S22.70
- $75.90
- $23.50
- $26.20
- $48.60
- $3.70 (race 6}
- $56.70

Royal Ascot (England):
Royal Ascot (England):
- Day Three: Five-day meet.
- Winning Foals by Nation (through three days): Ireland 10, England 7, USA 2, France 2.
- Tom Marquand rode two winners.
- Race 7: Witch Hunter (Jamie Spencer/Richard Hannon) was sent off at 49-to-1 and won the finale to pay $100. Spencer won for the first time since 2018 at Royal Ascot, his 27th lifetime win at the prestigious meet.
- Race 4: Courage Mon Ami (Frankie Dettori/John & Thady Gosden) won the Gold Cup, the lone Group I race of the day. The victory provided the legendary 52-year-old rider his 79th win at Royal Ascot in what is likely his last time racing at the meet.
- Race 1: Valiant Force (Rossa Ryan/Adrian Murray), foaled in the U.S. but who raced all three starts in Europe, pulled one of the largest shockers in recent years paying $240.70 in victory. This was a Breeders' Cup invitation. Exotics were gigantic:
- $1.00 QUINELLA 7-16 $1838.60
- $1.00 EXACTA 16-7 $5369.60
- $1.00 TRIFECTA 16-7-4 $25166.00
