Thorpedo Anna before the Breeders Cup Distaff

Thanks for the memories, Anna! 2024 Horse of the Year Thorpedo Anna retired from racing today.

Thorpedo Anna, the reigning 2024 Horse of the Year, was officially retired from racing on October 15, 2025, marking the end of a remarkable career for one of thoroughbred racing's most accomplished fillies. Trainer Kenny McPeek announced the retirement decision following her disappointing fourth-place finish in the Grade I Spinster Stakes at Keeneland on October 5.​

Saturday's racing card at Saratoga Race Course delivered exceptional entertainment with five consecutive Grade 1 races, headlined by Sovereignty's commanding performance in the $1.25 million DraftKings Travers Stakes. The Kentucky Derby and Belmont Stakes winner entered as a heavy 3-10 favorite and justified the confidence with a dominant 10-length victory over Bracket Buster in a field of five runners.
