Day 1 of the Breeders' Cup is Future Stars Friday, devoted to the juveniles. All five races are for 2-year-old horses, running on turf and dirt at distances from five furlongs to 1 1/16 miles.

Three months later, the colt broke his maiden at first asking at Saratoga Race Course, and Sept. 2, he won the Hopeful Stakes (G1).
