Letruska at Oaklawn
St. George Stable s 5-year-old mare Letruska has retained the No. 1 position in the latest NTRA National Thoroughbred Poll following a quiet week in which none of the top rated horses were in action. As a result, the first eight places in the poll remained unchanged.
Letruska, trained by Fausto Gutierrez, has won four of five starts this year, including the Grade 1 Apple Blossom Handicap at Oaklawn Park, the Grade 1 Ogden Phipps at Belmont Park, and the Grade 2 Fleur de Lis at Churchill Downs. A daughter of 2010 Grade 1 Kentucky Derby winner Super Saver, Letruska has 13 first-place votes and 298 points.

LULU GARCIA-NAVARRO, HOST: For many Americans, the summer protests after the murder of George Floyd are now memories of the public standing against police violence. Some people, though, like a handful of people in Austin, Texas, still bear injuries.

ANTHONY EVANS: They said my jaw looked like I got hit by, like, a car.
UNIDENTIFIED REPORTER #1: Evans and his twin brother Arthur protested at Austin police headquarters peacefully pushing for change. As he left, officers on the I-35 overpass fired a less-lethal round, hitting him in the face, fracturing his jaw.
Louisville, Ky.
Growing up in California, I did not know of Harvey Pack. That was my loss. When he died this week, it was a loss for all of racing.
By the time I moved east in 1992, Pack had already made his mark on a generation of TV viewers across the tri-state area. That would be the New York-New Jersey-Connecticut tri-state area as opposed to Texarkana or the DMV. Those tri-state areas only knew Pack from his annual appearances on the Breeders’ Cup. So did I.
“Who was that guy from New York who was making picks with Pete Axthelm?” I would ask every October. “The guy who looks like Wallace Shawn with aviator glasses.” Lather, rinse, repeat. Every year I would see him and crave more as I asked, “Who is Harvey Pack?”
