Juddmonte’s Disco Time found himself in unfamiliar territory near the back of the pack in the Lecomte (G3) at Fair Grounds, but the favorite rallied in time to pass his first test on the Road to the Kentucky Derby.

Reigning Breeders’ Cup Distaff (G1) winner Idiomatic earned a fees-paid berth back to the Breeders’ Cup when dominating Sunday’s $600,000 Spinster (G1) at Keeneland for the second straight year.

Last seen fading to an uncharacteristic 12th in the Godolphin Mile (G2), Saudi Crown returned triumphant in Sunday’s R.A. “Cowboy” Jones S. at Ellis Park.

Dragoon Guard wired the West Virginia Derby (G3) to continue his ascent in the sophomore division, while Hit Show rallied up the rail to take the West Virginia Governor’s (G3).

Friday’s Amsterdam (G2) shaped up as a competitive affair on paper, but Siena Farm and WinStar Farm’s World Record ran his rivals ragged at Saratoga.

Godolphin’s homebred First Mission chased the pacesetting T O Saint Denis for most of Friday’s $730,000 Alysheba S. (G2) at Churchill Downs and cruised home to a commanding four-length win.

Ova Charged broke a shade tardy in Friday’s $332,000 Unbridled Sidney S. (G3) at Churchill Downs but was still able to gain a slight lead soon after the start and gamely repelled all comers in the end.

Reigning champion older mare Idiomatic rolled to her sixth consecutive victory in Friday's $1 million La Troienne (G1) at Churchill Downs.

Alpine Princess didn’t break cleanly but quickly recovered to show the way into the first turn of Saturday’s $97,000 Untapable S. at Fair Grounds, and the two-year-old filly dominated the rest of the way on the front end, scoring easily by two lengths.
