The leading older dirt male in training, Breeders' Cup Classic (G1) winner White Abarrio, will be sitting out Saturday's renewal of the $3 million Pegasus World Cup (G1) to await a pair of rich stakes in the Middle East later this winter.

O'Connor will head into next month's Pegasus World Cup (G1) in much better shape than he did 12 months ago, following a head victory in Saturday's $150,000 Harlan's Holiday (G3) at Gulfstream Park.
