Updates on contenders for the various Breeders' Cup events and other news, as racing's championship event is now just 22 days away.

Classic: Defending Classic champion Zenyatta breezed an easy five furlongs in 1:02.60 at her home base, Hollywood Park, this morning. Regular jockey Mike Smith was aboard for the move, her first since winning the Lady's Secret on Oct. 2 and the first of three planned works leading up to the Classic. The mare ticked off fractions of :25.80, :38.40 and :51.20. She got her final furlong in :11.40 and finished well ahead of workmate El Vino, who clocked in 1:03.20. ... Oklahoma Derby winner Pleasant Prince won't make his next start in the Classic after all, as owner Ken Ramsey has decided it isn't financially sensible to supplement the 3-year-old at a cost of $450,000.

Juvenile: Hopeful winner Boys At Tosconova worked a brilliant six furlongs in 1:10.90 at Aqueduct on Thursday morning, the best of five at the distance. With regular rider Ramon Dominguez in the irons, the Officer colt went each quarter faster than the prior one and finished ahead of older workmate Laysh Laysh Laysh (1:11.30). The colt galloped out seven furlongs in 1:24.44. He'll ship to Kentucky on Nov. 2. ... Norfolk winner Jaycito worked an easy half in :50.60 at Hollywood, the first of three works before leaving for Kentucky on Oct. 31.

Mile: Woodbine Mile winner Court Vision worked six furlongs over the Aqueduct turf in 1:23.03. While the time is extremely slow for six furlongs, the cones were set up well off the rail on the course, meaning workers traveled much farther than the prescribed distance.
