Havre de Grace worked out at Keeneland on Monday in preparation for
the Breeders' Cup Classic at Churchill Downs, with jockey Gabriel Saez
guiding the 4-year-old filly over five furlongs in 58:60 seconds.
Havre
de Grace is expected to run against the boys on Nov. 5 in a bid to
become the second female to win the Classic, following Zenyatta in 2009.
However, owner Rick Porter of Fox Hill Farm has said she will be
cross-entered in the Ladies' Classic.
"It was good, what we

have run last Saturday. She couldn't get any better."
The filly
ran the first three-eighths of a mile in 35 seconds and the half in 47,
finishing the last eighth on the Polytrack in 11.60.
