CULPABLE shown here breezing at Saratoga, wins his debut race at Saratoga! Acting like a pro, he tracked the pace along the rail, moved out in the stretch to seize the lead, and gamely held off two late challengers! Congratulations to MKW Racing and Spendthrift Farm on this exciting victory, and to Todd Pletcher and his team!

In just her second start, AVALON ROSE draws off to break her maiden by an eye-catching 4 lengths at Del Mar! Congratulations to her owners, T&A Racing, White Fence, James Avansino, Larry Buckendorf, Tyler Harringer, Richard McCarty, Robert Stephen, and Peter Underhill, and trainer Bob Hess and his team! AVALON ROSE was raised and sold by Frankfort Park Stud and was an Alistair Roden recommendation at the 2025 Keeneland Yearling Sale.

After breaking his maiden at Churchill Downs in June, SASSMASTER followed that up with this impressive victory over older horses in a salty Saratoga allowance race! He will be an exciting colt to follow! Congratulations to long-time client and friend Mark Breen, Todd Pletcher, his stable, and jockey Flavien Pratt. SASSMASTER was bred in Kentucky by Stonestreet and recommended by Alistair Roden at the 2024 Fasig Tipton October yearling sale.
