USA, Friday

Emirates Airline Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf (Grade 1) 1m3f, turf, 3yo+ fillies & mares

Quote:
PERFECT SHIRL (Roger Attfield/John Velazquez) gave Canada a surprise Breeders' Cup victory when denying Europe's Nahrain and Misty For Me in a sprint finish to the Filly & Mare Turf.

Quote:
"I'm really thrilled, I'm real proud of her," said Nahrain's trainer Roger Varian. "She ran a super super race. I'm frustrated not to win but so happy with her run. She got half a length on the winner but it wasn't quite enough. I can't ask any more of her."

Churchill Downs: Breeders' Cup Ladies' Classic (Grade 1) 1m1f, dirt, 3yo+ fillies & mares

Quote:
GERARD BUTLER believed that third place in the Breeders' Cup Ladies' Classic was there for the taking and Pachattack, the star of the Newmarket trainer's American satellite stable, duly took it as she excelled herself to get in the money behind impressive winner Royal Delta (Bill Mott/Jose Lezcano).
Quote:
Anyone planning to acquire Royal Delta will have to pay considerably more than they might have expected after the three-year-old - beatenover eight lengths by Breeders' Cup Classic contender Havre De Grace on her previous start - gave Hall of Fame trainer Bill Mott his fourth victory in America's most prestigious event for fillies and mares.
