THE FUGUE UNLUCKY AS ZAGORA STRIKES

John Gosden's The Fugue endured a torrid passage up the home straight before settling for third behind Zagora in the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf at Santa Anita.

William Buick opted to stick to the rail on favourite The Fugue, but had nowhere to go as Zagora swept past to challenge leader Marketing Mix.

Chad Brown's Zagora (9-1) found plenty in the final furlong for Javier Castellano, coming home clear of Marketing Mix, while French raider Ridasiyna took fourth.

FRENCH RAIDER TAKES CUP GLORY

Flotilla finished with a flourish to give trainer Mikel Delzangles and jockey Christophe Lemaire their first Breeders' Cup wins in the Juvenile Fillies Turf at Santa Anita.

In what turned out to be a messy race for those near the rail, including Richard Hannon's Sky Lantern, who never found a gap under Richard Hughes, Flotilla was masterfully handled by Lemaire.
