LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Corey Lanerie and Ken McPeek wouldnt mind doing this every September at Churchill Downs. The jockey-trainer team won the Pocahontas Stakes for the second straight year, this time with Daddys Lil Darling, whose sustained stretch run was enough to hold off Ever So Clever in the Grade 2, $200,000 race.With her victory for owner-breeder Normandy Farm, Daddys Lil Darling earned the first 10 qualifying points toward the Kentucky Oaks next spring as well as a Win and Youre In berth toward the Breeders Cup Juvenile Fillies at Santa Anita.This filly has done everything right from the beginning, said McPeek, who gave Lanerie a leg up last year on Pocahontas winner Dothraki Queen.A quick pace unfolded in this 48th running of the 1-1/16-mile Pocahontas, with Jet Away Sue and Bling On the Music winging out early in spread-eagling the field. The fillies began to bunch together on the final turn, with Daddys Lil Darling getting first run on the other back runners.Down the stretch, as Bling On the Music began to tire and a rally from Dream Dancing began to fizzle, Daddys Lil Darling persisted to prevail by a half-length over a late-running Ever So Clever.Daddys Lil Darling, a Kentucky-bred by Scat Daddy, returned $9.80 after finishing in 1:47.19 over a muddy track. She was coming off an eight-length maiden victory at Ellis Park on July 29.We could run back in the Alcibiades, but that might be coming back a little quick, said McPeek, referring to the Oct. 7 opening-day feature at Keeneland. The fillys a bit lean and isnt going to take lot of races close together, so maybe well get to California early and make sure shes plenty fresh.Steve Asmussen, trainer of Ever So Clever, was pleased with how much ground the Medaglia dOro filly made up from last in the field of nine.Shes a good filly, a quality filly, he said.For Lanerie, the leading jockey at 11 of the last 12 Churchill meets, the Pocahontas snapped a rare winless streak of 34 races dating to Sept. 10 at Kentucky Downs.The $2 exacta (9-8) paid $52.40, the $1 trifecta (9-8-1) returned $186.30, and the 10-cent superfecta (9-8-1-2) was worth $43.35.The Pocahontas was the fourth and last stakes race run on an eventful 11-race Saturday at Churchill.

Custom Soccer Jerseys . JOHNS, N. SPARTANBURG, S.C. -- The Carolina Panthers made history on Thursday by holding a joint practice with a high school football team.The Spartanburg High School Vikings went through warmups and had a chance to interact with Carolinas coaches and players at Wofford College before breaking off and doing their own work on an adjacent field.Panthers director of community relations Riley Fields said it is the first time an NFL team has practiced alongside a high school team.Fields said the organization wanted to celebrate the NFLs Play 60 initiative by doing something special and unique. He said the Panthers needed to clear everything with the NFL, the NCAA and state high school officials before the project initiative was granted.Everyone said, `Wow this is a great idea, Fields said. ... We felt it was a special day for our players and for the Spartanburg High School football players.Panthers coach Ron Rivera said when Fields initially approached him about the idea he was against it. But the NFL Coach of the Year soon changed his mind once he realized it could be a huge benefit to the high school athletes.To me its about the love of the game and bringing it back to the community, Rivera said.Spartanburg High School coach Chris Miller said he thought it was a joke at first when his office received a call about practicing with the Panthers.It is just an unbelievable opportunity for us, Miller said.Miller said watching an NFL team run through simmilar drills to what they run in practice was an important lesson for his players.ddddddddddddWere constantly talking about it and they are doing it over and over again. Now they see guys who have paid the price and look where it has gotten them, Miller said.Rivera said the experience was also fun for his players.When you talked to some of our guys they had a chance to reminisce about the good old days, Rivera said. I was standing over there watching (the Vikings) earlier and it took me back to playing at Seaside High School. It was kind of neat.Linebacker Thomas Davis, the elder statesman of the Panthers, said it was an opportunity he would have loved to have had as a teenager growing up playing football in Shellman, Georgia.It will go a long way in these kids lives knowing they had an opportunity to practice with Panthers, Davis said. I impressed upon the kids the importance of coming out here and working hard and being able to do your job and listen to your coach.Davis, who regularly exchanges trash talk with Cam Newton during practice, also had a little fun with the high school players.He even convinced one of them to talk some trash to Newton.I was kind of feeding him stuff to say to Cam, Davis said with a laugh. He delivered it pretty well.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
