Despite his impressive victory in Saturday's Grade 1 Vosburgh, Ghostzapper will not contest the Breeders' Cup Sprint, trainer Bobby Frankel confirmed on Monday. Frankel believes the speed-favoring nature of Santa Anita's surface and the fact Ghostzapper likes to rally around horses combine to make the Sprint a bad fit for his 3-year-old.

"He's a young horse and I think he's got a great future,'' Frankel said. "I don't think that track suits him.''

Frankel acknowledged that Ghostzapper and Aldebaran - a late-runner whom Frankel will run in the Sprint - have similar racing styles, but he believes Aldebaran is a different type of horse.

"Aldebaran can run through horses, can come up the rail,'' Frankel said. "The other horse basically wants to come around.''

Frankel said there is a slight chance Ghostzapper could run in the Grade 1, $350,000 Cigar Mile at Aqueduct on Nov. 29. But the more likely scenario is that Ghostzapper is put away for the year and will be pointed to New York's major sprint races next spring, such as the Carter at Aqueduct in April and the Metropolitan Handicap at Belmont in May.

Midas Eyes, Frankel's other top 3-year-old sprinter, worked five furlongs in 1:00.65 Monday morning at Belmont and still remains a possibility for the Sprint, Frankel said.

Frankel said that Peace Rules, the 3-year-old who won the Blue Grass and Haskell Invitational, would be pre-entered in both the Breeders' Cup Classic and the Breeders' Cup Mile. Frankel said Peace Rules could run in the Classic if Mineshaft skips the race.
