Notes:
Clubhouse Ride is off the Derby trail with a
hairline fracture of his right ankle. Dialed In will not run in the Feb 26 Fountain of Youth. Nick Zio will look for another two turn prep for the April 3 Florida Derby. Tiz Blessed, trained by Chad Brown, has been sent to Kentucky for an exam. His trainer is concerned that something is not quite right. Monday’s Southwest Stakes from Oaklawn Park has attracted a field of 11
including J P’s Gusto (#15), Caleb’s Posse (#35), Grant Jack (#41), Yankee
Passion (#59), and the promising Elite Alex (#97).
