INFORMED DECISION (Monarchos) begins her female sprint championship title defense on Thursday in the $300,000 Madison S. (G1) at Keeneland, the exact same spot where she kick-started her seven-race campaign last season. Trainer Jonathan Sheppard has stated that Informed Decision would likely follow a near-identical path to the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Sprint (G1), scheduled for November 5 at Churchill Downs, to the one she took last year. Five rivals, the same number she defeated in the 2009 Madison, will line up against the champion in the seven-furlong test over Pro-Ride.
