all in Racing

The post-Breeders’ Cup lull may be settling in, but there was still plenty of meaningful stakes action across North America last week. Graded stakes at Aqueduct and Churchill Downs produced standout performances that sparked some movement on the Equibase leaderboard measuring earnings in North American races for 2025.

The Breeders’ Cup provided more evidence of increased interest in racing during the 2025 season as NBC Sports reported strong ratings. Beyond those viewers, it’s important to remember that fans reach this event through a number of other outlets.

Showing off her potential with a strong burst of late speed, Fully Subscribed stamped herself as a filly to watch next year as she drew away to a 4 1/2-length victory over Kentucky Oaks runner-up Drexel Hill in the $300,000 Grade 2 Mother Goose Stakes for 3-year-old fillies going 1 1/8 miles Nov.

As the dust settles on another Breeders’ Cup, new stars have emerged, familiar faces reaffirmed their greatness, and the 2025 racing season moves closer to the finish line with storylines that have reshaped the Equibase Leaderboard.

Preakness Stakes winner Journalism will race next year before he retires to stud at Coolmore’s Ashford Stud, according to Aron Wellman of Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners, one of the colt’s co-owners.
