Ravelo’s Boy
worked six furlongs in 1:11 4/5, handily, on Sunday at Calder Race Course for
trainer Manuel Azpurua and owner Korina Stables.
“It was very, very good,” said Azpurua. “He’s
100 percent sound and he’s behaving himself. Every single week he’s
been doing better and better. That’s why we are taking a chance and
running in the Belmont Stakes.”
Ravelo’s Boy, who comes into the Belmont Stakes off a fifth in
the Grade 2 Tampa Bay Derby, will depart for Belmont tomorrow and will arrive early
Tuesday morning, said Azpurua. Alex Solis has the mount.
