ARCADIA, Calif. -- David Hofmans, trying to pull off one of the great training achievements in Breeders Cup history, gave Melatonin a sharp final work Wednesday morning at Santa Anita in preparation for the $6 million Breeders Cup Classic on Saturday.Melatonin has not raced since winning the Gold Cup at Santa Anita in June owing to an illness he had at Del Mar that prevented him from starting in the summer and fall. So, Hofmans has had to train Melatonin up to the race, and hes done so in aggressive fashion to have him fit for a 1-1/4-mile race against the likes of California Chrome and Arrogate.Melatonin has had 10 works since Sept. 6, including six in the past 31 days. His final series was a mile on Oct. 22, five furlongs five days later on Oct. 27, and then a half-mile Wednesday in 47.98 seconds, according to Daily Racing Forms Mike Welsch.That was a little faster than I wanted, but he did it so easy, Hofmans said. He was in a high canter. He did it well within himself.Joe Talamo, Melatonins regular rider, was aboard for the work.How was he? Hofmans asked Talamo as Melatonin came through the paddock after the work.A-plus Talamo replied.Hofmans said he could envision Melatonin being on the lead Saturday, depending on how he breaks and the tactics used early by California Chrome to his inside and Arrogate to his outside.He may be sitting third, but if he breaks running, who wouldnt mind being up a length and a half? Hofmans said. Just as long as hes not going head-and-head.Melatonins layoff numbers 133 days. Invasor, 10 years ago, won the Classic off a 91-day layoff, the longest for a winner of the Classic. Reggie Jackson Angels Jersey . Now, correct me if Im wrong but I saw one official distinctly pointing at the net indicating a good goal but after an inconclusive review they overturned the goal. Shouldnt the ruling on the ice (good goal) stand after an inconclusive review? Why was this overturned? James Veaudry Pembroke, ON -- Hey Kerry, Youll get a lot of these, but why was the Montreal goal against Nashville Saturday night overturned? Eller puts the puck on net and the on ice ruling from the ref behind the net is a Montreal goal.

Defenceman Yannick Weber scored the go-ahead goal early in the third period and the Canucks breathed a sigh of relief with a 2-1 win on Saturday night. The National Womens Soccer League declined to fine or sanction Washington Spirit owner Bill Lynch for playing the national anthem while players were still in the locker room before a Sept. 7 match against the Reign, denying Seattle player Megan Rapinoes plan to kneel in protest.The league also decided not to take action against Rapinoe, who accused Lynch of being homophobic.We have spoken with all parties involved regarding these matters and determined not to issue any fines, NWSL spokesman Patrick Donnelly said Thursday, according to The Washington Post. The league has taken this opportunity to reinforce our expectations that all NWSSL policies and protocol are followed by everyone who represents the league.ddddddddddddRapinoe made the accusation against Lynch after the match, saying her being gay played a part in the decision. Three days earlier, Rapinoe knelt during the anthem before the Reigns match at Chicago.In a match on Sept. 11, also against the Spirit, Rapinoe and her teammates locked arms during the national anthem, but no one knelt. ?Rapinoe did kneel in U.S. national team matches in Columbus, Ohio, and Atlanta last week.?
