Facing just three rivals in a scratched-down field, 'TDN Rising Star' THREE TECHNIQUE (h, 7, Mr Speaker–Nite In Rome, by Harlan's Holiday) ran all three of them down inside the sixteenth pole to take the GIII Ack Ack Stakes at Churchill. The win was good for a spot in the GI Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile. Last of the quartet up the backstretch as the front trio stayed together in a line, the 5-1 shot swung four wide off the turn and the field came home with everyone in with a chance at the furlong marker. But it was Three Technique who kicked on close to the wire, outrunning Tumbarumba (Oscar Performance) and 4-5 favorite Cagliostro (Upstart) to win. Lifetime Record: 39-7-6-8.
