Bob Baffert’s Adare Manor to run in Saturday’s Pacific Classic at Del Mar
Del Mar’s signature race of the summer gained some needed star power Monday night, when trainer Bob Baffert said he would enter his star mare Adare Manor in Saturday’s $1 million Pacific Classic.
Only one female has won the race in 33 prior runnings — Beholder in 2015.
Adare Manor, a 5-year-old daughter of Uncle Mo, has won 10 of her 18 starts, including the Grade 1 Clement L. Hirsch Stakes the last two years at Del Mar. She has never run against males or gone as far as 1 1/4 miles.
Entries will be taken Tuesday, with the post positions drawn in the afternoon. The only other Grade 1 winner nominated was Express Train, whose victory came nearly 2 1/2 years ago in the 2022 Santa Anita Handicap.
Baffert, in a text to the Union-Tribune’s Bill Center, also said he would enter Reincarnate, who was second last month in the Cougar II Stakes at Del Mar. Baffert also nominated the 3-year-old Muth but had said last weekend he would not start both Adare Manor and Muth.
Other nominees were San Diego Handicap winner Dr. Venkman, Cougar II winner Midnight Mammoth, Il Miracolo, Katonah, None Above the Law, Mixto, Clooney and Full Serrano.

Top-ranked Jannik Sinner beats Alexander Zverev to win Wimbledon again
Jannik Sinner is starting to make a habit of responding to adversity in Paris with Wimbledon titles.
The top-ranked Sinner beat Alexander Zverev 6-7 (7), 7-6 (2), 6-3, 6-4 Sunday for his second consecutive title at the All England Club after his German opponent appeared bothered by a knee issue following a slip to the grass on a key point in the third set.
Sinner’s fifth Grand Slam title came in his first tournament since a second-round meltdown at the French Open, when he wilted in a Paris heat wave.
A year ago, Sinner beat Carlos Alcaraz in the final at the All England Club after wasting three match points against his rival in the Roland Garros final.
It was Sinner’s 10th straight victory over Zverev, who was coming off his first Grand Slam title at the French Open.
Linda Noskova beat Karolina Muchova in an all-Czech women’s final on Saturday for her first Grand Slam title.
Prince William joined his wife Kate and two of their children for the final in a star-studded Royal Box that also included actors Dustin Hoffman, Nicole Kidman and Ben Stiller.
Zverev slips
The top two seeds appeared perfectly matched until Zverev earned his first break point of the match at 3-3 in the third set — 2 hours and 42 minutes in. Sinner produced a drop shot and Zverev slipped and appeared to hyper-extend his right knee as he attempted to change directions behind the baseline.
Zverev grasped his knee in apparent discomfort and Sinner went around the net and helped his opponent up off the grass. Zverev quickly resumed playing but he appeared slightly hampered and slung his racket across the baseline in frustration when he missed a forehand and handed Sinner the first break of the match and a 5-3 lead in the third. Sinner then served it out.
Zverev had also lost 14 straight sets to Sinner and when he claimed the opening set of the final with a forehand winner up the line to conclude a tight tiebreaker, he let out a loud roar toward his box as he bent over in celebration.
Zverev continually cranked out serves at up to 139 mph (224 kph), while Sinner produced a series of well-placed aces at a slightly lower speed.
But Sinner began to read Zverev’s serve better in the second-set tiebreaker and Zverev started to miss forehands.
Paris meltdown
Amid stifling heat and humidity in Paris in late May, Sinner had his 30-match winning streak ended after coming within one game of a straight-set victory over Juan Manuel Cerundolo, who was ranked No. 56.
Conditions were cooler in southwest London for the final, with clear skies and a temperature of 82 degrees Fahrenheit (28 Celsius) but it was also breezy — which led to a series of shanked shots from both players.
Sinner went in for medical exams in Milan after the Paris defeat and didn’t play an official match again until he arrived at Wimbledon, where he twice had to come back from a set down in a five-set marathon against Miomir Kecmanovic in the first round.
Sinner then didn’t drop a set the rest of the way until the final, having dominated against Novak Djokovic in the semifinals.
Despite the defeat in the final, Zverev will leapfrog Alcaraz into the No. 2 spot in the rankings on Monday.
Alcaraz missed both the French Open and Wimbledon this year due to a right wrist injury.

Wimbledon is keeping the World Cup off its official screens, even in the players’ lounge. Fans and players can still watch on their phones, but tournament TVs will stay focused on tennis.
