Team Hansen seemed pleased Sunday with how the colt came out of his
Gotham (G3) victory and for what lies ahead. He will ship to Turfway Park and
train for a likely start back at Aqueduct for the Wood Memorial (G1) on April 7th//
The San Felipe (G2) Saturday may consist of the most accomplished cast we’ve

Graded stakes winners Out of Bounds, Sabercat, Liaison, and Creative
Cause could lead the list, although the latter two are unconfirmed for the race. The San Felipe may also feature
stakes-placed runners Rousing Sermon, American Act and Empire Way as well as
several intriguing stakes debuts by promising late bloomers Fed Biz and
Bodemeister. Many of those
probables worked Sunday at Santa Anita and Hollywood Park. Workout details are
below// Iroquois Stakes (G3) winner Motor City could very well make his 2012

has a blog hosted by ESPN. In the latest entry he says distance will not be an
issue for Union Rags// The Kentucky Derby Future Wager Pool #2 closed Sunday
with ‘All Others’ (3-1) favored over Union Rags (4-1). Hansen is the third
choice at 9-1 with the other individual entries getting pretty juicy odds…
