LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Dale Romans had been even more effusive in his praise for this one than he normally is. And after Not This Time easily defeated seven other 2-year-olds Saturday in the 35th running of the Grade 3, $150,000 Iroquois Stakes at Churchill Downs, the veteran trainer could barely contain his enthusiasm.Hes spooky good, said Romans.Confidently ridden from the outside post by Robby Albarado, Not This Time was kept in the clear throughout the 1-1/16-mile race, gliding past the front-runners after straightening for home to prevail by 8-3/4 lengths.The key now is to get him to the Kentucky Derby, said Romans, who trains Not This Time for the Albaugh Family Stable of Iowa.And indeed, Not This Time has a head start on the rest of the class: with his win, he earned the first 10 qualifying points toward the 143rd Kentucky Derby next May at Churchill. He also receives a Win and Youre In berth toward the Breeders Cup Juvenile at Santa Anita.Well either train straight up to the Breeders Cup or maybe run in the Breeders Futurity, said Romans, referring to the Grade 1 race at Keeneland on Oct. 8.Bet down to favoritism, Not This Time paid $5.60 after finishing in 1:45.22 over a muddy track. Lookin At Lee was up late to get second by a head over Recruiting Ready.Albarado said not a day has gone by that I havent thought about Not This Time since the colt won an Aug. 12 maiden race by 10 lengths at Ellis Park. Dale really liked this colt even before he ran. This is sweet.Not This Time is by Giants Causeway out of the Trippi mare Miss Macy Sue, which makes him a half-brother to Liams Map, winner of the 2015 Breeders Cup Dirt Mile. The Albaughs sold Liams Map at auction but held on to this foal, and hence the name.The Iroquois set up a little differently than it looked on paper, with Blame Will assuming the early lead while the speedy Recruiting Ready rated kindly for Gary Stevens from a few lengths off the pace. Midway in the final turn, Recruiting Ready made his bid from the outside, but he and all the others were soon overpowered by Not This Time, whose swooping outside run quickly put the issue to rest.The $2 exacta (8-1) paid $40.60, the $1 trifecta (8-1-7) returned $86.90, and the 10-cent superfecta (8-1-7-2) was worth $35.29.

Wasps winning start to the season continued with a 20-15 triumph at Northampton Saints on Saturday.?Wasps centre Jimmy Gopperth crossed for a first-half try and added 10 points from the boot while winger Josh Bassett touched down for a late score to seal the win.George Norths early try set the perfect tone but it would take the Saints another 75 minutes to score again as their accuracy in attack failed them on countless occasions throughout the contest.With Saracens suffering defeat against Harlequins, Wasps temporarily move up to first in the league standings with unbeaten Bath in action against Leicester on Sunday.Northampton made a stunning start to the contest and had their first try of the afternoon inside 60 seconds.First, Ken Pisi, on his 100th appearance for the club, made great yards before a rampaging Kieran Brookes steamrollered over Elliot Daly from the next phase.With the Wasps defence stretched, quick hands from Harry Mallinder and Ben Foden sent North racing over in the corner to send a heaving Franklins Gardens into raptures. Myler pulled the touchline conversion wide, but the home side had made a big statement of intent.Jim Mallinders side would dominate the contest of the best part of 20 minutes but stubborn defence from the visitors spearheaded by flanker Guy Thompson would keep the Saints at bay.Danny Cipriani then conjured a breakaway try with some trademark attacking brilliance. From a scrum deep in their own territory, the Wasps No 10 chipped and collecting his own grubber kick before offloading to flanker Thompson who in turn fed Gopperth in support who showed great pace to finish despite the best efforts of North.Gopperth convertedd from in front of the posts to stun the Saints.dddddddddddd Despite dominating possession and territory for the majority of the first half, Northampton would find themselves five points down at the break as a 31st-minute penalty from Gopperth increased Wasps lead.Wasps were dealt a significant blow early in the second-half with a groggy Cipriani leaving the field following a big collision with Saints No 8 Louis Picamoles.Dai Youngs side would draw first blood in the second-half as another Gopperth penalty made it 13-5 before Dalys long-range three-pointer drifted to the right of the posts.A clever chip kick from hooker Mikey Haywood forced Gopperth to carry the ball into touch handing the Saints a prime attacking platform. Substitute Teimana Harrison rose high to claim the lineout allowing Mallinder to crash over the gainline. Tom Woods strong carry put the Wasps defence under immense pressure but England lock Courtney Lawes spilled Mylers pass with plenty of men to spare out wide.Having been kept scoreless for nearly 75 minutes, Northampton finally breached the Wasps line with substitute scrum-half Tom Kessell barging over from close-range after a relentless spell of pressure. Myler added the extras to narrow the gap to a solitary point with four minutes left on the clock.Wasps would have the final say, however, as Bassett raced onto replacement scrum half Dan Robsons kick ahead to touch down and seal a fourth consecutive league win.Mylers late penalty secured a bonus point but the Saints will feel they should have had more.
