Oct. 28 Insights: Second-to-Last Leslie’s Lady Foal Debuts at Keeneland

Sponsored by Alex Nichols Agency

5th-KEE, $84k, Msw, 2yo, f, 6f, 3:08 p.m. ET

One of the most prolific broodmares of the 21st century will be represented by her penultimate foal Thursday at Keeneland when MARR TIME (Not This Time–Leslie's Lady) opens her account for Clarkland Farm and Brad Cox in this sprint. Famously the producer of international superstar stallion Into Mischief (Harlan's Holiday), four-time champion Beholder (Henny Hughes) and GISW multimillionaire Mendelssohn (Scat Daddy), the now 25-year-old Leslie's Lady was retired from breeding after foaling a Kantharos filly last year. Marr Time has trained as if she's yet another runner out of her dam, showing a half-dozen sharp breezes, highlighted by a five-furlong bullet from the gate over this track in :59 2/5 (1/30) Oct. 10.

Fox Sports 2 To Televise Breeders Crown Coverage From The Meadowlands This Saturday

On the heels of a successful two-hour live presentation on Meadowlands Pace Night, which was followed by a Hambletonian Day “look-in” that chronicled Captain Corey's spectacular score in the granddaddy of them all, Fox Sports 2 (FS2) will be back at The Meadowlands this Saturday with 3½ hours of Breeders Crown coverage beginning at 12:30 p.m.

Coverage will go back and forth between The Meadowlands and Belmont Park throughout the show.

Showcasing the Crown coverage will be Big M TV's Jessica Otten, who will be on site providing updates and interviews, with the New York Racing Association's Anthony Stabile supplying handicapping and analysis.

Once the FS2 telecast concludes, coverage will then continue on SportsNet New York (SNY) until 5:30 p.m. There will be one hour (from 3-4 p.m.) when both networks will carry the same feed.
