Daily market recaps with key events, stock movements, and global influencesOf course, this also ended a 15-year run for Kentucky. I think both programs will start rolling out first rounders in the coming years. An incredible, record-breaking run of first-round prominence and dominance is over: Kentucky, and John Calipari, did not produce a first round pick tonight for the first time since 2009.

It was early May 1994, and D. Wayne Lukas had been on a brutal run. The erstwhile king of thoroughbred trainers hadn’t won a Grade I stakes race in more than two years, had lost his 10-year grip on the national training title, had endured the fatal breakdown of Union City in the 1993 Preakness, and had seen his son and top assistant, Jeff, suffer a severe brain injury when he was run over by a fractious colt named Tabasco Cat.

This also happened late last night: Summer McIntosh obliterated the 400 freestyle world record.

During the first day of the 2025 Canadian Swimming Trials in Victoria, Summer McIntosh just demolished the world record in the women's 400 freestyle. She won the event in 3:54.18, 1.20 seconds off the previous WR held by Australia's Ariarne Titmus since 2023. https://t.co/9ybjIxXYYv

Also of note: Summer apparently was available for a brief, mixed-zone interview shortly after her WR swim — cap and comp suit still on. It can be done, @USASwimming.

In conversation with Summer McIntosh. Who continues to rewrite history, breaking the 400m freestyle world record once again in a time of 3:54.18 — more than second faster than the previous Ariarne Titmus record. Here’s 🇨🇦 Summer McIntosh after her latest brilliance. https://t.co/ClRtu86l4U
