four wins and $212,965 in earnings -- will be ready to serve as a broodmare by the next
breeding season, possibly to In Excess.
FINISH LINES: Jockey Kent Desormeaux was given a five-day suspension starting Saturday, costing
him stakes mounts on Cyrano Storme in the Hollywood Park Budweiser Breeders' Cup
on Saturday and Soul of the Matter in the Bel Air Handicap on Sunday. The ban, "for altering course
without sufficient clearance, causing interference" . . . resulting in the disqualification of Ocean View
from first to third in Sunday's second race, runs through July 21. Gary Stevens obtained the mount on
Soul of the Matter . . . Wednesday's sixth race produced a "Prized" exacta. Jake's Surprize, a
first-time starter ridden by Martin Pedroza and trained by Mike Machowsky, won the six-furlong
sprint at a $23.80 payoff, while Murray Novack, also a first-time starter, ridden by Goncalino Almeida
and trained by Richard Cross, ran second. The exacta: $150.80 . . . Richard Mandella expects to
ship Talloires about a week before the $2 million Grande Premio Brasil at 1 1/4 miles on the turf to be
decided in Rio de Janeiro on Aug. 6. Walter Greenman said River Rhythm would pass the race, while
Rodney Rash has engaged Patrick Valenzuela to ride Celtic Arms in the classic at Gavea
Racecourse. Celtic Arms breezed six furlongs in 1:18 on Hollywood Park's firm turf course (dogs up)
Thursday morning . . . Eagle Eyed, pointing to the Eddie Read at Del Mar on Aug. 6 by Bobby Frankel,
went three furlongs on Hollywood's fast main track in :36 with Eddie Delahoussaye up, while Neil
Drysdale sent French Deputy the same distance in :37 3/5 . . . To Be Khaled is scheduled to work one
mile at Santa Anita Friday and remains a possible starter in the $500,000 Swaps Stakes, trainer
Vladimir Cerin said . . . Sans Ecocide will probably ship to Saratoga for the $250,000-guaranteed Sword
Dancer Invitational Handicap (Grade I) on July 29, trainer Mike Puhich said. Puhich added there's a
slight chance the Bo Derek Stakes winner could remain home for the $250,000-added Caesars
International Turf Handicap.
