Charles Fipke’s homebred Seeking the Soul has gained an entry to the Breeders’ Cup after winning the Stephen Foster at Churchill Downs.

Seeking the Soul finished a neck in front of a brave Quip 14/1 with Tom’s d’Etat who set the pace staying on for the third money.

Earlier the Wise Dan saw a thrilling finish in which March to the Arch won by a neck from All Right and Admission Office was another neck away in third.

The Fleur du Lis saw favourite Elate oblige winning by 1 ½ lengths to Blue Prize with She’s a Julie a head away in third.

At Monmouth on Sunday there was a mega-upset when King for a Day (very apt for the US Fathers’ Day meeting) defeated Maximum Security by a length in the Pegasus.
