Vikings fullback Felton charged with DWI
LOUISVILLE, Ky., Nov. 5 (UPI) -- Wrote got clear in the final yards to win Saturday's $1 million Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf, leading a sweep for foreigners in the event.
With Ryan Moore riding, the Irish-bred and Irish-trained Wrote saved ground along the hedge in mid-pack until the field turned for home. Moore then found a seam between horses, got the High Chaparral colt into the clear and he quickly sprinted out to win by 2 1/4 lengths.
Canadian-trained Excaper, with Emma-Jayne Wilson up, finished second and English-trained Farraj was third. Lucky Chappy, an Irish-bred who had raced in Italy, finished fourth.
Wrote came into the race off a third-place finish in the Juddmonte Royal Lodge Stakes at Newmarket in England. Saturday's win was his third from five career starts.
He ran the 1 mile on "good" turf in 1:37.41.
