R Heat Lightning - 2010 Spinaway (G1) [01:52]
Trainer Todd Pletcher broke his own Saratoga Race Course record for wins in a single season in style, sending out R Heat Lightning to victory in Sunday's 119th running of the Grade 1, $250000 Spinaway for 2-year-old fillies. Pletcher came into the Spinaway with 35 wins, and R Heat Lightning's Spinaway score catapulted him past his previous high mark, which he set in 2003 and 2004 when the meet was four days shorter than the current 40 days. R Heat Lightning, one of four entrants for Pletcher in the Spinaway, trailed the field following a quarter mile in a sharp 21.89 before launching a wide rally on the far turn. Alienation had seized a clear advantage at the top of the stretch, but R Heat Lightning made a steady run to grab the lead in the final furlong and open up to a four-length decision. Finishing third, 2 ½ lengths behind Alienation, was favored Valiant Passion, another Pletcher trainee.

2010 Whirlaway Stakes - Peppi Knows [02:12]
Philip J. Messinas Peppi Knows captured the 31st running of the $100000 Whirlaway Stakes Saturday afternoon at Aqueduct Racetrack, in a race in which 2-5 favorite Eightyfiveinafifty bolted during the first turn. A 3-year-old son of Stephen Got Even, Peppi Knows had run second behind the highly regarded Buddys Saint in the Grade 2 Remsen last out on November 28, and was returning to Aqueduct for the second time. Racing in third after a quarter mile in 23.79 seconds, Peppi Knows tracked comfortably down the backside, assumed the lead on the far turn, and opened up a clear advantage nearing the quarter pole. He hit the wire a length in front of Afleet Again and completed the 1 1/16th miles in 1:47.10 over the fast inner track.
