June 23 (UPI) -- Another Royal Ascot meeting is in the books, with the big names landing the championship titles and four Breeders' Cup spots awarded through the "Win and You're In" Challenge program.

Two more Breeders' Cup spots were dished out Sunday in South America, as top-level North American racing took a bit of a breather.

The weekend ended with a sad note about one of the sport's all-time great trainers. See "News and Notes."
