After a last-place finish on Saturday in the Lady’s Secret Stakes at Santa Anita, Blind Luck won’t run in next month’s Breeders’ Cup Ladies’ Classic at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Ky., trainer Jerry Hollendorfer said Sunday.

‘Right now, I would say she definitely will not run in the Breeders’ Cup,’ he said. ‘But she came back fine. I don’t know why she threw in a bad race. She never did that before.’

Blind Luck, who was the champion 3-year-old filly of 2010, had never finished worse than third in her 21 previous starts.
