HELSINKI -- Finnish police have released two members of Cubas national mens volleyball team but are holding six others on suspicion of aggravated rape, an investigator said Monday.Police will request that a regional court on Tuesday order the six men to be remanded in custody to continue the investigation before any possible charges, said Joni Lansipuro, the Central Finland Police Department officer in charge of the investigation.We have made considerable progress in our investigation and have various pieces of evidence and relevant factors that support our suspicions, Lansipuro said. We propose (to the court) that they be held in custody.The eight men were detained over the weekend in Tampere after local police on Saturday morning received a report that a woman had been raped at a hotel in the city, 170 kilometers (105 miles) north of the capital, Helsinki. The Cuban team was in the city participating in the Volleyball World League tournament in Tampere where they lost 3-1 against Finland without three of their players, who had been detained.Lansipuro said the Cuban team had been scheduled to leave the country on Monday morning, but it wasnt immediately clear if they had departed.The Cuban Volleyball Association acknowledged the arrests in a statement Monday night. It said the Finnish investigation was continuing, but added that early information implicates them in acts that are totally removed from discipline, the sense of honor and respect that govern our sport and society. The statement did not indicate whether the rest of the team had returned to Cuba.Police declined to give further information pending the outcome of the investigation, except to say that the alleged victim and suspects were adults.The international volleyball federation, FIVB, said its very concerned by the alleged serious misconduct of the Cuban national team and has been in close contact with all parties involved.The FIVB has absolute zero tolerance of any offence committed against another person by any players or officials at an FIVB event, the world body said in a statement to Finnish broadcaster YLE.The Cuban Volleyball Association acknowledged the arrests in a statement Monday night. It said the Finnish investigation was continuing, but added that early information implicates them in acts that are totally removed from discipline, the sense of honor and respect that govern our sport and society. http://www.saintsrookiestore.com/Saints-Chase-Daniel-Jersey/ .

ELMONT, N.Y. -- When your stablemate is as regally bred as is Rachels Valentina it is easy to get overshadowed. But Off the Tracks no longer needs to take a backseat to any 3-year-old filly in her barn after she recorded a front-running 3-1/2-length victory over Lewis Bay in Saturdays Grade 1, $300,000 Mother Goose Stakes at Belmont Park.Meanwhile, Rachels Valentina -- the daughter of 2009 Mother Goose winner Rachels Alexandra -- could only manage a fifth-place finish after stumbling and getting bumped at the start.Off the Tracks, a daughter of Curlin, is now 4 for 6. She joined a select group of fillies to win the Schuylerville Stakes at Saratoga at 2 and the Mother Goose at 3. Cicada (1962-63), Meadow Star (1990-91), and Turnback the Alarm (1991-92) are the others.Jose Ortiz rode Off the Tracks to victory. It was his first Grade 1 win of the year and his ninth stakes victory of this meet. He won three races on Saturdays card and his 67 victories at this meet are 20 more than his brother Irad, who won four races on Saturday.Off the Tracks gave trainer Todd Pletcher his fifth Mother Goose victory. He trails only his former boss, D. Wayne Lukas, who has six.Off the Tracks came to Pletcher undefeated in three starts after majority interest in her was purchased by Newtown Anner Stud from J Stables earlier this year. She finished third in the Gulfstream Park Oaks -- her first start around two turns -- before running a good second to Carina Mia in the Grade 1 Acorn here just three weeks ago.I think shes a filly thats always shown big potential, Pletcher said. Everyone was sort of down on her after the Gulfstream Oaks but I actually thought she ran a sneaky good race that day. She was three wide throughout on a track that was playing inside speed and it was muddy. I thought she ran a really good race in the Acorn.Pletcher wasnt convinced how the Mother Goose would be run but he thought there was a decent cchance Off the Tracks would be on the lead.ddddddddddddff the Tracks was on the lead, but had to run fractions of 22.79 seconds for the quarter-mile and 45.53 for the half-mile to get there. She was prompted by Moms On Strike.She relaxed good after the first eighth of a mile. She was going pretty fast but she was going relaxed, Ortiz said. When we passed the three-eighths pole she pricked her ears a little bit and that gave me a lot of confidence.Off the Tracks ran six furlongs in 1:09.62 but kept going and though it looked like Lewis Bay might offer a challenge in the stretch that never materialized.Off the Tracks covered the 1-1/16 miles in 1:41.01 and returned $8.10 as the third choice in the seven-horse field.I was a little concerned going as fast as they were but she seemed like she was doing it comfortably, in a good rhythm, Pletcher said. Happy to see her have something left to finish up with.As happy as he was with Off the Tracks, Pletcher was disappointed with Rachels Valentina, last years Grade 1 Spinaway winner who lost her fourth consecutive race. Rachels Valentina stumbled and was bumped by a stumbling Lewis Bay at the break, but neither Pletcher nor jockey John Velazquez used that as an excuse.She got back into a rhythm, she was going well, halfway down the backside I put her in the clear and that was it, she didnt have anything to respond with, Velazquez said. If it was the stumble youd know right away, but she was running well.Lewis Bay also recovered well after her stumble and jockey Irad Ortiz Jr. said he thought he was in a good spot when she moved into second turning for home.I looked behind me at the quarter pole, everybodys riding and nobody had horse. I said great, said Ortiz. I wait, wait, wait I asked her and she fell apart. She just didnt finish.
