The hard-knocking 6-year-old Bradester (Lion Heart) broke through at the highest level with a game front-running triumph under the lights in Saturday night’s GI Stephen Foster H. at Churchill Downs, a Win and You’re In for the GI Breeders’ Cup Classic.
Joseph W. Sutton’s multiple graded stakes winner Bradester, a contender for the $1 million Las Vegas Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile (G1) at Keeneland on Oct. 30, worked five furlongs in :59 on a fast main track Saturday after the renovation break.
