Godolphin Racing LLC’s 4-year-old Kentucky homebred filly Better
Lucky was nominated for Saturday’s $150,000 Honey Fox Stakes (G2) at
Gulfstream Park and has posted a series of workouts at Palm Meadows for
trainer Tom Albertrani, but her return to competition will have to wait
until Keeneland.
“She’s doing very well, but we got a little behind bringing her
back,” said Albertrani of the highly-accomplished daughter of
Ghostzapper. “We’re pointing her for the Jenny Wiley,” said Albertrani
of the $300,000 Jenny Wiley Stakes (G1) to be run on Blue Grass Stakes
Day, Sat., April 13.
Better Lucky hit her best stride during the second half of last year
when finishing second by a neck behind Centre Court in the Lake George
Stakes (G2) at Saratoga, a good third in the Queen Elizabeth II
Challenge Cup (G1) at Keeneland and a victory in the Matriarch Stakes
(G1) over older fillies and mares at Hollywood Park last out on Nov. 25.
