Colonial Downs in New Kent, Va., was forced to cancel its Wednesday evening card following the third race due to a thunderstorm that resulted in a power outage at the facility. The track had been scheduled to run eight races Wednesday.

Racing at Colonial Downs is scheduled to resume with Thursday’s card. First post Thursday is 6 p.m. Eastern.

Unlike last Saturday and Sunday, when no one hit the pick six at Belmont Park and a double carryover of $248,140 was the result, a series of fairly predictable results on Wednesday led to a wide distribution of riches.

With a fresh $1,984,034 diving into the pool, the pick six paid $6,152 to 229 winners who correctly tabbed the 3-8-4-10-3-10 combination of Longfor the City ($4.20), Crackerjack Jones ($2.90), Wholelottashakin ($8.90), Delightful Dawn ($8.20), Strapping Groom ($11.20), and Antone Suavey ($8.90).

AUBURN, Wash. – The speedy 4-year-old fillies Daisy Clover and Hot N Sauci headline the feature at Emerald Downs on Friday, a $12,500 claiming race for fillies and mares that have never won two races. The six-furlong feature attracted six entrants and will go as the sixth race on a seven-race program beginning at 6:45 p.m. Pacific.

Daisy Clover has yet to finish worse than second in three starts for trainer Blaine Wright, who began the week with 12 winners from 37 starters at the meeting – a strike rate of 32 percent that has made him Emerald Downs’s most efficient trainer.

Havelock remained in England after finishing 11th at 33-1 under Frankie Dettori in the Group 1 Diamond Jubilee last Saturday at Royal Ascot and likely will run back July 13 in the Group 1 July Cup, a six-furlong race at Newmarket, Churchill-based trainer Darrin Milller said.

Havelock, a multiple graded stakes winner in the United States, is in the care of Miller’s 19-year-old son, Chase, at the same yard, Abington Place, used by such well-known trainers as Michael de Kock and Jane Chapple-Hyam.

Stephanie’s Kitten, arguably the top female turf runner in North America this year, has not worked since her victory in the Grade 1 Just a Game on the June 8 Belmont Stakes undercard but continues to train forwardly at Churchill, according to trainer Wayne Catalano.

Another Grade 1 race – the July 27 Diana at Saratoga or the Aug. 17 Beverly D. at Arlington Park – is next, Catalano said.

“We were thinking about a prep in between, but it doesn’t look like we’ll do that,” he said. “We’ll just go straight into one of those big ones.”

Jimmy Creed may be favored in Saturday's Triple Bend Handicap, which has a projected field of nine, including defending champion Camp Victory as well as Centralinteligence, Comma to the Top, Cyclometer, Drill, Morning Line, Rail Trip, and Tres Borrachos.

A couple of horses expected to participate in Calder’s Summit of Speed turned in sharp workouts over the track Wednesday.

Close It Out, the runner-up in the June 8 Ponche Handicap, sizzled four furlongs in 46.82 seconds and galloped out five-eighths in 59.73 under jockey Manoel Cruz in preparation for the Grade 2 Smile Sprint Handicap, a Win and You’re In event for the Breeders’ Cup Sprint.

ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, Ill. – Saturday’s Chicago Handicap at Arlington has landed a plum entrant in Aubby K, winner of the Grade 1 Humana Distaff at Churchill Downs in her most recent start.

Trained by Ralph Nicks, the 4-year-old Aubby K won the Grade 2 Inside Information at Gulfstream Park to start her season before capturing the May 4 Humana Distaff by 1 1/2 lengths. The Gulfstream win came on fast track, the Churchill win in slop, and on Saturday, Aubby K, a daughter of Street Sense, will try an all-weather racetrack for the first time.

Isn’t He Clever could be headed to Del Mar following his 16 3/4-length win in the $75,000 San Juan County Commissioners Handicap at SunRay Park last Sunday. His trainer, Henry Dominguez, plans to have a 10-horse division at the Southern California meet, and said with few options for the horse in New Mexico right now, Isn’t He Clever could summer at Del Mar before returning for the Zia Park meet that opens in September.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Wise Dan is scheduled to face seven other older horses Saturday night on the Churchill Downs turf when breaking from post 2 in the Grade 2, $175,000 Firecracker Handicap, but there’s a good chance at least one of those will scratch.

Trainer Tom Proctor entered Corporate Jungle in the Firecracker but said Wednesday it was only in case Wise Dan doesn’t actually make it to the starting gate.
