ARCADIA, Calif. – The 10-year-old gelding Royal F J has run his last race.

On Thursday at Santa Anita, Royal F J finished seventh in a $6,250 claimer as a 4-1 shot, beaten 9 1/2 lengths. He won 9 of 102 starts and earned $568,150 in a career that began with trainer Jack Carava at Santa Anita in 2009. Carava was Royal F J’s final trainer.

“I always said if he ran a bad race without an excuse, that would be it,” Carava said Friday. “He didn’t fire.

“I’ve got several offers to give him a good home. He’s a cool horse.”

ARCADIA, Calif. – Jockey Israel Ocampo will be out for at least a month, and Joe Talamo will not ride this weekend after the pair sustained injuries in a two-horse spill Thursday at Santa Anita.

Ocampo was aboard Warrenscrystalized, who broke down approaching the finish of an allowance race on the hillside turf course. Talamo was aboard Hawk’s Journey, who could not avoid Warrenscrystalized and fell.

Warrenscrystalized was euthanized as a result of a leg injury, according to track stewards. Hawk’s Journey was not injured, trainer Jorge Periban said Friday.

Multiple graded stakes winner Irap has been euthanized after developing laminitis as a complication from an injury he sustained in the Pennsylvania Derby.

The overachieving 4-year-old Imperial Hint will be Del Mar bound Tuesday for the Breeders’ Cup Sprint, in which he will be among the favorites.

Trainer Luis Carvajal Jr. will van Imperial Hint from Parx Racing to Newark Liberty International, where he will catch an afternoon FedEx flight. Carvajal plans to give Imperial Hint an easy work at Del Mar prior to the Nov. 4 Breeders’ Cup Sprint.

Two trainers, including Jorge Navarro, have been fined by the New Jersey Racing Commission for positive tests for Class 1 substances in post-race samples of horses under their care, but the commission did not levy suspensions, citing “mitigating circumstances” that point to contamination of the samples.

LEXINGTON, Ky. – Trainer Ron Moquett said Petrov will be pointed to the $200,000 Steel Valley Sprint on Nov. 20 at Mahoning Valley in Ohio after keeping his non-stakes record perfect with a one-length victory in a 6 1/2-furlong allowance here Wednesday.

Petrov is winless in eight stakes tries – although he was second, third, or fourth in six of them – while having won his other three career starts. The six-furlong Steel Valley is restricted to 3-year-olds.

Solid Sunday undercard

LEXINGTON, Ky. – The next six weeks could be big ones for trainer Dale Romans. His two Breeders’ Cup Juvenile hopefuls, Free Drop Billy and Hollywood Star, were flown to California on Monday, while some of his other stable stars could be in action at the 21-day Churchill Downs fall meet.

Dak Attack, who was forced to miss the BC Juvenile because of a sore shin, is back in light training and is an outside possibility for the Nov. 25 Kentucky Jockey Club Stakes, Romans said.

LEXINGTON, Ky. – Three-year-olds begin merging into the Thoroughbred mainstream around this time of year, and trainer Ian Wilkes is as interested as anyone else to see how McCraken will match up when facing older horses for the first time.

“We’ll find out soon, huh?” Wilkes said.

A revealing test will come next Saturday at Keeneland, where McCraken is expected to line up against Neolithic, Honorable Duty, and The Player in a terrific 60th running of the closing-day feature, the Grade 2 Fayette Stakes.

ELMONT, N.Y. – Todd Pletcher will not have a runner in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf on Nov. 3 after two potential candidates were deemed to need additional time and a third did not work to satisfaction Thursday morning over the Belmont turf course.
