BREEDERS` CUP ROUNDUP: RERAISE AND DOLLASE TAKE SPRINT.

Byline: Daily News Wire Services

Leading all the way, Reraise captured the $1 million Breeders' Cup Sprint by two lengths Saturday to make Santa Anita-based Craig Dollase, 27, the youngest-winning trainer in the Breeders' Cup's 15-year history.

Grand Slam, Kona Gold, Gold Land and A.P. Assay, all of whom came to Churchill Downs from California, finished second through fifth in the 6-furlong race contested by 14 runners.

Dollase's father, Wally, is one of the top trainers in California. His brother-in-law, Corey Nakatani, is Reraise's rider and won the Sprint for the third straight year.

Reraise, a 3-year-old gelding, paid $9.60 for a $2 bet to win. He has won five of his six races.

In other Breeders' Cup races before the featured Classic:

Juvenile Fillies: Silverbulletday and Excellent Meeting, both trained by Bob Baffert, ran 1-2 in the $1 million race for 2-year-old fillies.

Winning owner Mike Pegram won the Kentucky Derby and Preakness last spring with Real Quiet.

``It has been a great year at Churchill,'' Pegram said. ``It takes a little of the sting out of losing the Triple Crown.''

Silverbulletday, rallied from fifth by jockey Gary Stevens, paid $3.60. She was one of only two winning favorites Saturday.

Silverbulletday covered the 1 1/16 miles in 1:43 3/5 - two-fifths of a second faster than the equivalent colts' race.

Distaff: Stevens won his second race of the day by setting a slow pace on front-running Escena, who held off a late rush by odds-on favorite Banshee Breeze to win by a nose in the $2 million race for fillies and mares. Escena ($8) is trained by Bill Mott for owner Allen Paulson.

Mile: Da Hoss, the 1996 winner who had been idled by injury and didn't run again until a month ago, battled back in the stretch under jockey John Velazquez to win by a head over Hawksley Hill and Alex Solis.

Favorite Trick, last year's Horse of the Year as a 2-year-old, set the early pace but faded to eighth. Desert Prince, Europe's top miler, was 14th and last.

Michael Dickinson, who trains Da Hoss ($25.20), downplayed his sometimes unorthodox methods, saying after the Mile, ``The single most important thing in winning is to have a good horse. After that, what we trainers do is minuscule.''

Juvenile: Answer Lively held off a desperate rush by 76-1 Aly's Alley to win by a head in the $1 million race for 2-year-old colts and geldings. Cat Thief, one of five colts in the field trained by D. Wayne Lukas, finished third.

Favored Answer Lively ($7.40) is trained by Bobby Barnett for owner John Franks. He has won four of seven races in Louisiana, Texas and Kentucky.

Turf: Buck's Boy, the only confirmed front-runner in the field of 14, took advantage and went wire-to-wire under Shane Sellers in the 1-1/2-mile race worth $2 million.

Buck's Boy ($9.20) won by 1-1/4 lengths over Yagli. Dushyantor finished third and defending champion Chief Bearhart was fourth in the 13-horse field.

Big money: A record $83 million was bet across the country on the Breeders' Cup, and the big winners were those who nailed the pick-six.

There were 114 tickets that named all six winners, and each paid $34,602.20.

The wagering total surpassed the old record of $82.6 million set in 1993, when the Breeders' Cup was held at Santa Anita.

At Santa Anita: Musafi, ridden by Garrett Gomez, won a photo finish over Fabulous Guy and favored Expelled in the Morvich Handicap, the highlight of a seven-race live card in Arcadia on Saturday.

Today, Fiji is a 7-5 favorite in the Yellow Ribbon Stakes, one of the year's major races for fillies and mares on turf.

There's a $237,094 pick-six carryover from Friday.
