By HRI Foreign Staff — The Santa Anita Derby has long been considered one of the most vital prep races for the Kentucky Derby, particularly for horses based on the West Coast. It is, of course, a historic and prestigious race in its own right, currently carrying a $750,000 purse. It always attracts a quality field, and it has thrown up some brilliant renewals over the last 90 years or so.

Edited NYRA Staff Release — Tom Morley, winning trainer of the The Big Torpedo (No. 5, $3*): “He’s a really neat horse. He’s an absolute joy to have in the barn, and he’s a very adaptable horse. I like the fact that Eric [Cancel] took no prisoners today and said, ‘look, I’m on the best horse in the race and I’m not going to overcomplicate it.’ I thought it was a very good ride and a very good performance to go that fast early and then quicken up as well.

Caitlin Tan wanted to breed her childhood horse, JP, because she’s been “amazing” — the type of animal any equestrian would be lucky to have once in a lifetime. Having access to coveted bloodlines increased the allure. Via the Miller Ranch, she could pair her 18-year-old mare with a stud descendent of Playboy’s Buck Fever.

Aurora’s pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness, which only allow a maximum 30-day stay, have been cycling the same individuals in and out, city staff told council members Thursday. Many return to street encampments when their time in the pallet shelter runs out, Jessica Prosser, homeless services director for the city, said. Then, the city sweeps the encampment again, and they get to come back to the shelter for another 30 days, Prosser explained. This process can repeat multiple times.

	Shortly after the inaugural Run Travis Run 5K race began in the parking lot of Inglewood’s Kia Forum, my mission became evident: I couldn’t let Travis Barker lap me. I’d already conceded that he would beat me, that was a given. One look at his loping gait in the Forrest Gump-inspired launch video for his run club showed that he was in far better shape than me, a year removed from my 11th marathon and (literally) kneecapped by an injury that persists. Still, him pulling a whole lap ahead of me on the three-lap course was not an option, for...
