LEXINGTON, Ky. -- She did it again.Miss Temple City outran the boys Saturday in winning the $1 million Shadwell Turf Mile, completing a rare sweep of the two showcase races for older horses held annually on the Keeneland turf.Rated just off the pace by Edgar Prado, Miss Temple City overtook 62-1 shot Pleuven after turning for home and withstood a torrid late rush by Ironicus to capture the Grade 1 race by a head. Tourist was a half-length behind in third and Mondialiste was another length back in fourth.Miss Temple City won the Grade 1 Makers 46 Mile in April, also against male rivals.Shes the best filly Ive ever trained, trainer Graham Motion proclaimed afterward. Shes spectacular.Only Wise Dan, a two-time Horse of the Year, had pulled the Makers-Shadwell double in the same year, doing so in 2014.Miss Temple City returned $17.40 after finishing in 1:37.04 over firm turf. The 4-year-old filly by Temple City is owned in partnership by The Club Racing, Allen Rosenblum, and Sagamore Farm. She was bred in Kentucky by Bobfeld Bloodstock.On another picture-perfect afternoon, and before a crowd of 28,101, Miss Temple City momentarily made the front before ceding the lead to Pleuven entering the first turn. She then raced in second before being let loose leaving the quarter pole.The key was she relaxed for me, said Prado, who has teamed with Motion to win big races since their time together in Maryland in the 1990s. She was comfortable. When I asked her, she took off and kept going. In the final yards, I saw the other horse [Ironicus] coming and I was glad the wire was there.After the top four, the order was Kasaqui, Pleuven, Ring Weekend, What a View, Grand Arch, Tower of Texas, and Triple Threat.With her victory, Miss Temple City earned a Win and Youre In berth into the Nov. 5 Breeders Cup Mile. Motion was non-committal as to whether he would try males again in that race at Santa Anita.The Shadwell capped a huge weekend in Kentucky with fillies for Motion, the British-born trainer based at Fair Hill in northern Maryland. On the opening-day card Friday, he won the Grade 1 Alcibiades with the 2-year-old Dancing Rags.Miss Temple City had gone winless in three starts since the Makers 46, but Motion said she was compromised by circumstances during those intervening months, which included an overseas trip to Royal Ascot in June.We lost our way with her a little, he said. She had some frustrating trips. Shed come back to train extremely well, though. Shes a very special filly.Ironicus, with Jose Ortiz riding for trainer Shug McGaughey, lagged back in ninth for most of the trip before unleashing a furious outside run as the 3-1 favorite.My horse broke good but wasnt able to get a good position on the outside to press the pace a little bit, said Ortiz. When he switched to the right lead he really exploded.The $2 exacta (7-8) paid $90.40, the $1 trifecta (7-8-10) returned $229.80, and the 10-cent superfecta (7-8-10-4) was worth $110.34.The Shadwell ended an all-graded-stakes pick five wager (races 5-9) worth $43,107.45 for 50 cents and a pick four (races 6-9) worth $5,543.65 for 50 cents. The big prices were helped by a 29-1 upset by Photo Call in the First Lady.The Shadwell, the richest race of the 17-day fall meet, was run about 40 minutes behind schedule. The start of the 10-race card was delayed because of a regional power outage Saturday morning. Cheap Blue Air Max .

Mens Air Max 90 . -- Edmontons Val Sweeting is two wins away from a trip to Winnipeg to play in Canadas Road of the Rings in December.Danny Willett was left encouraged by a strong start to the week on home soil as he made an early move at the BMW PGA Championship. The Masters champion carded a bogey-free 66 to sit one off the pace at Wentworth, trailing Scott Hend, former champion Y.E Yang and Joost Luiten.Willett, who was in contention at last weeks Irish Open before struggling over the weekend, followed three birdies on the front nine with three more after the turn to become the only player to sign a blemish-free card. This week is Willetts first appearance in England since last months victory at Augusta and the world No 9, whose best finish at Wentworth saw him fifth on his debut in 2010, admits enjoying his home return. Stats-wise, we probably didnt hit loads of fairways but were never in too much trouble, Willett added. Hit some great mid to short irons and rolled a few putts in.Its always nice when you come off bogey-free. It means youve played some real good golf and youve not given any stupid shots away to the golf course. Highlights from day one of tthe BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth I played the par-fives particularly average in fairness, after relatively good drives on most of them.dddddddddddd. It could have been a really good day, but its a good, solid start to the week.Playing alongside Victor Dubuisson and Soomin Lee, Willett made a bright start with a birdie-two at the second.Being followed by large crowd, the Englishman added gains at the sixth and eighth and saw another birdie chance at the ninth lip out to reach the turn in 32. Willett is playing the event for the seventh year running The world No 9 picked up a shot at the 10th and rolled in a 10-footer at the 14th to get to five under, before getting up-and-down to leave a close-range gain at the par-five 17th.Needing another birdie at the last to join the leading group, Willett elected to lay up for par to stay one adrift of the early pacesetters. Last week in Ireland was fantastic, but there was a little bit more support out there being a home boy in England, Willett added. They dont have to be here and they dont have to come out supporting, but they do.The greens are in a little better than I think they were last year and the last couple years, and I think everyone would agree with that. Hopefully if it stays like this, so well get a nice, easy full-flowing week.Weve played pretty solid over the last few years and were up there in contention a few years back with Luke Donald in the last round.This is a place I enjoy. I enjoy the golf course and I enjoy the challenge of it. You just hope for four good days of weather and keep the crowds coming in, and then you never know.Watch the BMW PGA Championship throughout the week live on Sky Sports 4 - your home of golf Also See: Willett shines at Wentworth Lowry four off the pace First round leaderboard Donald off to fast start ' ' '
