Pin Oak Stable’s Songs and Sonnets, who cruised to an eight-length
victory at Oaklawn Jan. 31, could possibly make her stakes debut in the
$150,000 Azeri Stakes (G3) March 16 after working a bullet five furlongs
in 1:00 Thursday.
“She worked good and is doing really good,” said trainer Donnie K.
Von Hemel. “I think it was right on a minute. It was good. We’ll
probably look at the Azeri now.”
It is no surprise that Songs and Sonnets, a homebred by Unbridled’s
Song, has taken a liking to Oaklawn. Her dam is the multiple graded
stakes winner Bedanken, winner of the 2002 Honeybee and Dixie Belle
Stakes.
