Position Limit, the 3-2 favorite among ten 2-year-old fillies, took the lead from Alienation in upper stretch and drew clear for a five-length victory Sunday afternoon in the Grade 2, $150,000 Adirondack at Saratoga Race Course.
Trained by Todd Pletcher for Starlight Partners, the Bellamy Road filly broke well and settled close to the pace as Alienation and Miss Sarah Brown zipped through fractions of 21.72 and 45.07. Moving up on the turn as Miss Sarah Brown began to fade, Position Limit collared Alienation at the top of the lane and after a brief tussle, edged clear for her second victory in as many starts.
“It set up perfect for her,” said winning jockey John Velazquez. “I was slightly nervous, though when I came up behind [Alienation] because it looked like she was going pretty easily. But as soon as I caught up with her, I knew I had her.”
Position Limit’s winning time was 1:17.30 for 6 ½ furlongs.
“I thought it went very well,” said Pletcher, who said the Grade 1 Frizette at Belmont Park on October 9 was a likely target. “She was able to secure a good position and delivered a kick when needed. It was what we had hoped for.”
Position Limit, a 6 ¾-length winner in her debut at Belmont Park on July 14, a race that earned her a spot on NYRA’s “New York Watch” list, returned $5.10 to her backers in the crowd of 20,980. She earned $90,000 for the Adirondack win, lifting her bankroll to $120,000.
Alienation, making her first start on dirt after breaking her maiden on turf, had another five lengths on third-place finisher Coax Liberty.
“She’s still learning how to run, but I think she handled the dirt all right,” said Alienation’s Hall of Fame trainer, Bob Baffert. “The winner is a good filly. We want to win, but I’m happy with her effort. She was the second choice and she came in second.”
Completing the order of finish were Hula, Nina Fever, Silvislip, Because I Like It, Tristanme, Golden Phoenix, and Miss Sarah Brown.

A Spigot Mortar pedestal, positioned on the west side of a Type 22 pillbox, south-west of Jude's Ferry Bridge on the bank of the River Lark. Inscribed into the wet concrete is ''Sgt. Rolfe''. The Spigot Mortar or ''Blacker Bombard'' was invented by Lieutenant-Colonel Blacker with the aim of providing cheap and easily produced weapon, after most of the British Army's heavy equipment had been lost at Dunkirk during the evacuation.
It fired a 20lb Fin-Stabilised High Explosive Mortar Bomb propelled by 'Black Powder' and had an effective range of 100 yards in its anti-tank role and up to 450 yards when firing a lighter anti-personnel bomb. It had one major drawback in that when the warhead hit its target, the fins would often fly backwards endangering the firing crew.
The Spigot Mortar was a weapon shunned by the Regular Army but was issued to the Home Guard in large numbers to protect bridges and other strategic locations. In its static defence role, the mortar was mounted on a stainless steel pin (''Pintle'') set into a substantial base of reinforced concrete (''Pedestal'') this was in turn set within a camouflaged weapons pit to offer some protection to the three man gun crew. A portable mount was also available, but weighed around 350lb and took three men to move it.
Eastern Command: Corps and Command Stop Lines – One of three Eastern Command Corps stop lines, this one running from the River Colne in Essex via Wakes Colne and Bures, along the River Stour to Sudbury and Long Melford, and thence to Bury St. Edmunds and the River Lark at Mildenhall. Its final stretch (known now as the Command Line) was via Littleport along the line of the River Great Ouse to King's Lynn.
Dam Bruce Hwy had 17 stop-n-go "men" from the Sunshine Coast to Airlie Beach and 37 road work zones. Not fun!
Divis KP or Divis Key Point as it was known, was a remote military communications station situated on the bleak Divis Mountain to the west of Belfast overlooking the City. Due to the highly sensitive nature of the site little is publicly known about it, however as part of the normalisation process within Northern Ireland it was abandoned in around 2005, this visit was in 2008. I believe it was demolished the following year.
There was a short article I came across in ‘The Sapper’ magazine January 2005 from the two Sections who were tasked with the ‘lock and leave’ of Divis KP. They stripped out 2km of coil fencing, installed new chain link fence with razor wire, removed the reinforced concrete blocks along with other improvised barriers and electrical cables.
When I visited first, it was clear that vandals had cut wire to gain access, and smashed doors and windows, as well as caused other damage inside. Most of the site has been removed, and the compound reduced in size, but a single mast and transmitter house still remain.
