Paul Reddam may have lost I'll Have Another and finished unplaced in the Haskell Invitational (gr. I) with Handsome Mike, but that doesn't mean he's out of the 3-year-old picture. Reddam said he is planning on sending his European-trained Cogito to Saratoga Race Course for the Aug. 25 Travers Stakes (gr. I).
Cogito, a well-bred son of Giant's Causeway –Ladies Cruise, by Fappiano, has won two of his four starts for trainer Brian Meehan, including a victory in the one-mile Betfair Heron Stakes at Sandown and a second in the 1 1/4-mile Prix Eugene Adam-Grand Prix de Maisons-Laffitte (Fr-II) in his most recent start July 22.
Bred in Virginia by Lazy Lane Farms, Cogito was a $165,000 weanling purchase at the Keeneland November mixed sale, then was bought back for $140,000 at the following year's Keeneland September yearling sale. He was consigned to the Tattersalls 2-year-old sale in England last year, but was withdrawn.
