TURF SESSION: Work of the morning went to CHAMBERLAIN BRIDGE who looks poised to defend his Turf Sprint title. Finished fast, finished strong. Feels like the whole campaign that he's had has been simply busy work to get ready for next Saturday..
Catalano's STEPHANIE'S KITTEN (Juv. Filly/Juv. Filly Turf) & TEQUILA FACTOR (Juvy-T) put in something that was allegedly a work but really looked like little more than spirited gallops. Have no idea what the instructions were, so until Catalano comments I won't either..
STOPSHOPPINGMARIA (Juv. Filly/JFT) went with SWEET CAT (JFT) went together with Sweet Cat looking better of the two to me. Pletcher later told media he's still undecided about where to go with the Repole filly. Originally she was thought to be going to the Juvy Sprint, but that's the one race we know she won't be in. Sweet Cat impresses me. She will be ridden by Borel according to his agent Jerry Hissem.
Finally, DYNASLEW (F&M Turf) put in a solo work for Seth Benzel and looked ragged tiring noticeably down the stretch..
