The 33rd running of the Grade 1, $500,000 Queen Elizabeth II Challenge Cup presented by Lanes End brings together a superbly talented field of nine 3-year-old fillies at Keeneland, all stakes winners and seven having won Grade 1 or 2 stakes in their careers.In terms of overall accomplishments, Catch a Glimpse gets first mention as she is eight for 10 in her career including a win in the Grade 1 Belmont Oaks Invitational in July. Time and Motion turned the tables on Catch a Glimpse when winning the Grade 2 Lake Placid Stakes in August and the two are set to square off for the third time. Harmonize won the Grade 1 Del Mar Oaks when last seen and is another with the credentials to succeed.Stays in Vegas was beaten a head in the Del Mar Oaks and can improve, as can fourth-place Oaks finisher Mokat, who previously won the Grade 2 San Clemente Stakes. Hawksmoor and On Leave are two fillies yet to run against the previously mentioned trio. Hawksmoor won the Group 2 German 2000 Guineas in June while On Leave won the Grade 2 Sands Point Stakes in her most recent race.Analysis and contenders: Let me start by saying there is no question that Catch a Glimpse, Harmonize, Time and Motion or Mokat can win as all four are graded stakes winners. Most of the four have faced each other multiple times and some have taken turns with each other. On any given day, any of these vastly talented fillies can win, and I will NOT be discounting their chances one bit. However, the new faces intrigue me a lot, and they are very likely to go to post at higher odds than the four previously mentioned fillies, so those are two horses I will be considering for win bets.Hawksmoor makes her North American debut, with a three-for-nine record in Europe. Three races back, in June, in a Group 2 (a very tough level) stakes in Germany, because of the addition of blinkers, she won in a field of 16. Hawksmoor then faced OLDER fillies and mares in the Group 2 Killboy Estate Stakes in Ireland, finishing third. She was not disgraced a bit when beaten a nose and a half-length for the win. In her most recent race, the Group 1 Matron Stakes in Ireland, Hawksmoor once again faced older opponents, finishing fifth of nine. For her U.S. debut, she adds Lasix and gets a local jockey in Corey Lanerie. If she is able to run back to either of her two efforts prior to the last one, she has every right to win this years Queen Elizabeth II Challenge Cup Invitational.On Leave has slowly worked her way up the class ladder in her six starts to date. She won her first start this year, in June, and is unbeaten in three races since. Her last race was her best effort yet, as she won the Grade 2 Sands Point Stakes, at this nine furlong turf trip. Jose Ortiz is the only jockey to ride On Leave to date and knows exactly what to do in order to get her to win. The 110 Equibase Figure she earned winning the Sands Point stacks up just fine when compared to the 112 figure Catch a Glimpse earned winning the Belmont Oaks Invitational and the 111 Harmonize earned winning the Del Mar Oaks. Best of all, On Leave has demonstrated the fastest final quarter-mile time of any horse in this field, running 22.6 when winning in July and 22.5 when victorious in the Riskaverse Stakes in August. Catch a Glimpse may be tough to run down as usual, but On Leave has potential to do just that in this race.The rest of the field, with their best representative Equibase Speed Figures, is Catch a Glimpse (112), Harmonize (111), Stays in Vegas (111), Queen Caroline (101), Mokat (110), Time and Motion (112) and Try Your Luck (102).My top two contenders 1.

Jusuf Nurkic Blazers Jersey .S. hockey team after paying his dues as an NHL general manager for more than three decades and giving up a lot of his free time to help USA Hockey.India picked Kedar Jadhav for the ODI series against New Zealand on the strength of his recent batting numbers. In the Quadrangular A-team one-day series in Australia, he scored 254 runs at 63.50, finishing as the tournaments fourth-highest run-getter. But his first big act against New Zealand would be with the ball.MS Dhonis decision to throw the ball to Jadhav in Dharamsala wasnt surprising in itself; he had spent a long time bowling offspin in the nets under coach Anil Kumbles supervision on the eve of the game. It was his immediate success that made heads turn. In the first over he bowled, Jadhav nearly had James Neesham lbw, but Bruce Oxenford turned down a strong shout.Jadhav, though, had the last word on it, getting both Neesham and Mitchell Santner out in his next over. In Delhi, he broke a 120-run stand by trapping Tom Latham in front, and took his best ODI figures, 3 for 29, in Mohali. Before the start of the series, Jadhav had one List A wicket; now he has seven.Jadhavs success with the ball has surprised many, not least because they had no clue he could bowl. Former India bowling coach Bharat Arun, who works with Royal Challengers Bangalore in the same capacity, has never seen Jadhav bowl. He was only a keeper for RCB so he never bowled in the nets, Arun says. He only used to work on his keeping. Maybe occasionally he would have bowled for fun on one or two occasions, but never seriously.Jadhav says it was Dhoni and Kumbles idea to groom him as a part-time bowler. The decision, it is believed, was born out of necessity; Dhoni wanted someone to replicate Suresh Rainas role - a middle-order batsman who could sneak in a handful of overs. Rainas failure to recover from an illness has givenJadhav an extended run, and he has now made it that much more difficult for Raina to come back into the side.While Indias batsmen have played Jadhav comfortably in the nets, New Zealand have struggled to decode him. Different theories have been offered as to why this has been the case. Arun feels its the low point of his release, a consequence of his short stature, that has proved deceptive; Jadhav himself has credited his success to his round-arm action and variations in pace.The questions, though, remain: how long is the honeymoon going to last? Is Jadhav a fluke or a sustainable solution to Indias middle-overs bowling problems? The former Maharashtra coach Surendra Bhave, who has worked with Jadhav since his under-19 days, says the 31-year-old is a multifaceted cricketer.He is an allrounder in the true sense, because without too much of an experience in keeping wickets in first-class cricket, he did exceptionally well in IPL as a keeper, Bhave says.dddddddddddd With people who have multiple skills, at times you feel that their success has been flukey, but you cant call it a fluke because he has bowled well in all the four ODIs so far. So obviously he has got some skillsets that were observed by the captain.During his time as Maharashtra coach, Bhave says he used Jadhav as a partnership-breaker in List A and T20 matches, and says his willpower stood out in pressure situations. Its fantastic for Kedar to have delivered because even a proper bowler gets nervous bowling his first over, Bhave says. That says a lot about his temperament and mental strength. He has got this gift of making subtle speed changes in his bowling and he does that consciously.Bhave, however, says Jadhavs true test will come when he is required to prove himself with the bat. In the three innings Jadhav has batted in so far in the series, he has scored 10*, 41 and 0. He has done well as a bowler, but we dont know whether it will last for few more games or he actually becomes an allrounder, Bhave says. We [Jadhav and I] have spoken twice or thrice [during the series] and Jadhav himself knows that he has to make a big score because this is a very strong outfit.Whenever he gets an opportunity, he has to nail it; he has to make a big score. His batting in India A and List A cricket has got him there, and he has actually been batting very well.Arun says Kohli has been a big influence on Jadhav, especially when it comes to fitness. Jadhav is a really hardworking cricketer, puts in a lot of effort at the gym and does a lot of work on his batting, Arun says. He would work alongside Virat in the gym. I guess thats where he would have started improving.Bhave says Jadhav has never looked out of depth at the international level. If you look at his List A cricket and India A cricket, his record in white-ball cricket has been impeccable, he says. He has been averaging around 50 in List A cricket and his consistent performances for India A tell us hes pretty happy in the position he is in. At no point in time Kedar suffers from the feeling of inadequacy at the international level, and thats his strength.When you are a non-regular bowler, to bowl well in all the four matches is in itself a good achievement. That has an effect on his batting - when he is batting he is extremely at ease and he is extremely confident. Even when you saw him in under-19 cricket, you saw that this boy was exceptional. ' ' '
