Dimanche, au Red Mile, se disputait la 128e édition du Kentucky Futurity (444.000 $). Au palmarès de cette prestigieuse épreuve, réservée aux meilleurs poulains de 3 ans américains, Amigo Volo rejoint les champions Greenshoe (2019), Six Pack (2018) ou encore Nuncio (2014). Après avoir attendu dans le sillage de l'animateur, le fils de Father Patrick prend l'avantage à l'entrée de la ligne droite, gagnant avec autorité (1'09” - 1.609 m.). Alors qu'il se rapprochait dans le tournant, Back of The Neck (Ready Cash) se montre fautif. Autre “Ready Cash”, Ready For Moni doit se contenter de la sixième place. Dans le pendant féminin (Filly), la gagnante de l'Hambletonian 2020, Ramona Hill (Muscle Hill) se montre fautive dès les premiers mètres. La victoire est revenue à l'outsider Love A Good Story (ChapterSeven), qui règle Hypnotic Am et Sorella aux abords du but.

Two-time Breeders Crown champion GIMPANZEE wins the $25,000 Invitational in 1:52, defeating five other "preppers" in the process.

Driven by Brian Sears for trainer Marcus Melander and owners Stall Courant and SRF Stable, the 4YO son of Chapter Seven is approaching $2.5 million in lifetime earnings. He was bred by Order By Stable.

Manchego finished second. Majestic Player A was third.

Gimpanzee made it three Breeders Crown titles in a row by winning Saturday's (Oct. 31) $500,000 Open Trot by a length over Crystal Fashion in 1:51.3 at Harrah's Hoosier Park. Atlanta finished third.

Gimpanzee, a 4-year-old stallion, became the fifth trotter in history to win at least three Breeders Crown trophies, joining Peace Corps, Grades Singing, Mack Lobell, and Manchego -- who accomplished the feat earlier in the night. Peace Corps, who leads the group with a record four Crowns, and Mack Lobell are the only others to win titles at ages 2, 3, and 4.

In addition, Gimpanzee became the first trotter to win a Breeders Crown at age 3 and return to capture the Open Trot at 4 since his sire, Chapter Seven, did so in 2011 and 2012.
