Los Alamitos, CA (SportsNetwork. Wholesale Air Max Plus .com) - The countdown can now begin for the 2015 return to the races of reigning Horse of the Year California Chrome. The 4-year-old chestnut colt, trained by Art Sherman and ridden by Victor Espinoza, had his final workout Sunday for Saturdays San Antonio Stakes. The champion went five furlongs at Los Alamitos in 1:01.60. I was looking for a minute and change, Sherman said. That would have helped me a lot more going into this race. I think its a good work but I would have liked a sharper workout for this race. Hes doing so good though ... His gallop out was stronger than it has been. He galloped out in 1:11 and four (fifths) ... Hell be fresh and ready, I can tell you that. California Chrome will move to Santa Anita on Tuesday and train on the track Wednesday. I think he went excellent, said Espinoza about Sundays work. He was steady all the way around, just cruising in the middle of the racetrack. I thought he went in a minute flat, it felt like that anyway. I think it was a perfect work for him, hes ready. The way hes going and the way hes been working tells me hes ready to go. Owned by Steve Coburn and Perry Martin, California Chrome is expected to face Shared Belief for a second time in the 1 1/8-mile San Antonio at Santa Anita. The two raced against each other in last Novembers Breeders Cup Classic won by Bayern. California Chrome finished third with Shared Belief, the 2013 champion 2-year-old, fourth. Bayern will miss Saturdays race with an injury. The San Antonio, won last year by Blingo, is expected to attract a field of between eight to 10 older horses and will be broadcast live on FOX Sports 1. California Chrome posted six wins from nine starts in 2014 and earned more than $4 million for the year. Overall he has nine wins from 16 starts and $4,222,650.

But the head linesman said there wasnt enough contact and that Hitchens was face-guarding, which isnt a penalty in the NFL.

He wants to seize that opportunity. The trouble is, Firus has had more bumps on the road to Sochi than most. Last year, Firus had the skate of a lifetime in the short program at the Canadian championships when he landed his first triple Axel in competition and finished third in a stacked field.DOHA, Qatar -- Second-seeded Agnieszka Radwanska of Poland earned a third consecutive -- and fourth overall -- semifinal berth at the Qatar Total Open when she quickly dispatched Yanina Wickmayer of Belgium 6-2, 6-1 on Friday. Radwanska, who required only 64 minutes to send Wickmayer packing, has had an easy run to the semifinals. She had a bye in the first round, a quick two-set win over Sorana Cirstea in the second round, and saw Mirjana Lucic-Baroni retire early in the second set of their third round match with a lower back injury. "I think Ive been playing great tennis this week and hopefully I can keep it going tomorrow (Saturday)," Radwanska said. "The shorter the match the better for me." Radwanska will face Simona Halep of Romania in the semifinal on Saturday. It was sweet revenge for Halep, who needed only 52 minutes to take care of fourth-seeded Sara Errani of Italy 6-2, 6-0. She lost to Errani 6-1, 6-0 in their only other meeting at the Miami tournament last year. It was also fortunate for Halep that the match went so quickly, because she says she is playing with a painful Achilles injury. Fifth-seeded Jelena Jankovic used her quick-stepping style to run ragged over powerful third- seeded Petra Kvitova 6-1, 6-3 to reach her third Doha career semifinal. "I was playing well and I was confident coming into this match," Jankovic said. "Against a top player like Kvitova you have to play your best game and I was glad I was able to do that today." It was clear that playing long three-setters against Venus Williams in the secondd round and Lucie Safarova in the third round zapped Kvitova of the energy to challenge Jankovic.

"I wasnt well before this and it wouldve been hard to lose in the first round, so I go now to Dubai with a positive feeling." Kvitova seemed on course to rebound in the second set, taking a 2-0 and then 3-1 lead. But from there it was all Jankovic, who won the final five games to set up a semifinal date against sixth seed Angelique Kerber of Germany. Kerber reached the Doha semifinals with a 6-1, 6-0 win over Czech qualifier Petra Cetkovska in just 50 minutes. "The mental part is very important in a match like this," Kerber said. "I tried focusing on every point and stayed in the moment, stayed in the match." Cetkovska was the third straight Czech opponent the hard-hitting Kerber defeated here, beating Karolina Pliskova in the second round, Klara Zakapalova in the third round and Cetkovska in the quarterfinals. If Jankovic didnt defeat Kvitova, Kerber wouldve been playing a fourth Czech in the semifinals. Cetkovska, was clearly drained 24 hours after upsetting top seed and reigning Australian Open Li Na in a competitive three-set match on Thursday. The only game Cetkovska won in the quarterfinal was when she broke Kerbers serve in the second game of the first set. Radwanska, Jankovic and Kerber have reached the Doha semifinals without dropping a set. ' ' '
