Canada's hope in the Filly and Mare Turf, Sealy Hill, galloped 1 1/2 miles under exercise rider Julia Brimo and schooled in the paddock. Norman Casse, son of and assistant to trainer Mark Casse, said, "I know this sounds like a cliche, but she's in great shape. She was kind of a disappointment earlier this year, but she's got things figured out now. Her last race, the E.P. Taylor, was a good race. She got in a lot of trouble and then came on strong to get third. I've been around her for her whole career and she's training better than she ever has and doing better than she's ever done."
