Kei Nishikori is targeting a grand slam breakthrough next season after enjoying the best year of his career so far.The world No. 5 claimed an ATP Tour title, Olympic bronze, and recorded a career-high 58 wins, but could only manage one grand slam semifinal at the US Open.A year that I won most matches does carry some significance but what is important is how much I can win at big tournaments, Nishikori was quoted as saying by Kyodo news agency.Result-wise this has been my best year. Ive played well against the top-10 players and have been winning against the likes of [Rafa] Nadal and [Andy] Murray, who I couldnt beat before.Im making fewer mistakes as I get older. I hope to keep building, bit-by-bit.Nishikori kicked off his year by reaching the last eight at the Australian Open before winning his only title of the year at the Memphis Open.However, his results at the French Open and Wimbledon were less impressive as he failed to make it beyond the fourth round at either event.The Japanese No. 1 picked up bronze in the mens singles at the Rio Olympics, defeating 2008 champion Rafael Nadal in the third-place play-off. He followed that up with a last-four appearance at Flushing Meadows, going down to eventual champion Stan Wawrinka.Nishikori qualified comfortably for the year-end ATP World Tour Finals, but was defeated by Novak Djokovic in a 6-1, 6-1 semifinal thrashing.Im confident I have the ability to challenge for world No. 3 and 4, Nishikori added. I need to be more cautious while determining which points in the match I have to focus and how I can win break points in a more assured manner. Air Zoom Pegasus 33 .

HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. -- Rated R Superstar became a graded stakes winner for the first time while handing the odds-on favorite Awesome Banner his first sprint setback in five tries when he rallied from off the pace to a convincing 3-1/4-length triumph in Saturdays Grade 3, $150,000 Carry Back Stakes at Gulfstream Park.With Cornelio Velasquez aboard, Rated R Superstar was reserved at the rear of the pack in the run down the backstretch while the 2-5 Awesome Banner, as expected, controlled the pace through quick splits of 22.37 and 44.59 seconds for the opening half-mile. Rated R Superstar came wide with his bid rallying into the stretch and readily wore down the tiring leader despite drifting at the end.Awesome Banner, who had won his first four sprint starts by a combined margin of 22 lengths including the Grade 2 Swale and Grade 3 Hutcheson here earlier this year, appeared well in control turning into the stretch with a clear lead, only to shorten stride late and prove no match for the winner. He was easily second-best, finishing six lengths in front of third-place finisher Bullet Gone Astray.The victory was the third in 11 starts for Rated R Superstar, a son of Kodiak Kowboy who was Grade 1-placed around two turns as a 2-year-old. The win also provided some good medicine for trainer Ken McPeek, who was in town but unable to attend the race after becoming ill on the eve of the Carry Back.Rated R Superstar completed seven furlongs over a track upgraded from good to fast just prior to the race in 1:22.09. He paid $7.40.Im actually in town but Ive got a stomach virus, McPeek said by phone immediately after the race. I was up all night. I guess I got it on the airplane. Im extremely dehydrated.McPeek said he was hoping to get some help with the pace with Awesome Banner to set up Rated R Superstars late surge.It looked like they did [press the 1] a little bit and watching the race, I thought he could run him down, said McPeek. Cornelio knew the horse a little from thhe start at Turfway and he did a great job.ddddddddddddcPeek said Rated R Superstar would likely make his next start in the seven-furlong, Grade 1 Kings Bishop next month at Saratoga.Dearest delivers in AzaleaDearest left little doubt shes the queen of the local 3-year-old filly sprint division after cruising to a 1-1/2-length victory over the 28-1 Smartly Agree in the $100,000 Azalea. The pacesetting Ballet Diva finished third.The win was the fourth in five starts for Dearest, a daughter of Midshipman whose only setback came at the hands of Cathryn Sophia in the Grade 2 Davona Dale going a mile this past winter.Dearest covered seven furlongs over a good track in 1:22.81 and paid $2.40.
