HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. – Gulfstream officials had considered dispersing the Rainbow 6 this coming weekend as the jackpot continues to spiral toward the $3 million mark, but Tim Ritvo of track owner The Stronach Group said Sunday they most likely will just let it ride until one of the final days of the championship meet.

HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. – The enduring prestige of the Queen’s Plate got a boost when the last two winners of the Canadian classic, Sir Dudley Digges (2016) and Holy Helena (2017), were victorious within hours of each other Saturday.

HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. – Business has slowed considerably for Edgar Prado in recent years, but the 51-year-old jockey still has milestones he intends to reach. Prado broke an extended slump at Gulfstream Park last Friday by winning a four-horse race on a 2-5 favorite, Sara’s Day, and entered this week with a 1-for-49 record at the championship meet.

ARCADIA, Calif. – Four candidates for Saturday’s Grade 1 Santa Anita Handicap worked Sunday at Santa Anita – Accelerate, Curlin Road, Giant Expectations, and Mubtaahij.

OZONE PARK, N.Y. – Led by Grade 1 winners Firenze Fire and Free Drop Billy and Grade 2 winner Enticed, a field of at least 10 3-year-olds is expected to be entered Wednesday for Saturday’s Grade 3, $300,000 Gotham Stakes at Aqueduct.

ARCADIA, Calif. - The absence of the undefeated Dream Tree from Saturday’s Grade 3 Santa Ysabel Stakes at Santa Anita may have done more to enhance her rivalry with race winner Midnight Bisou than if she had competed.

Last fall, Dream Tree beat Midnight Bisou by a nose in two starts: a maiden race here in October and the minor Desi Arnaz Stakes at Del Mar. Since then, both fillies have stayed apart and won two stakes.

HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. – The top two finishers in the Fountain of Youth at Gulfstream Park emerged from their efforts in good shape and appear headed for a rematch in the March 31 Florida Derby.

Promises Fulfilled and Strike Power ran one-two for all but perhaps the first few steps of the 1 1/16-mile Kentucky Derby prep Saturday, while the odds-on favorite, Good Magic, chased them home in third.

BOYNTON BEACH, Fla. – Good Magic, last year’s champion 2-year-old male, was in good health Sunday morning at the Palm Meadows training center, a day after he emerged from his third-place finish in the Fountain of Youth Stakes at Gulfstream Park “a little tired,” trainer Chad Brown said.

“The horse came out of the race a little tired,” Brown said. “He’s in good order. He scoped clean. Hopefully he got something out of a race it looks like he needed.

The horses who finished fourth, sixth, seventh, 10th, and 12th in the Grade 3 Fair Grounds Handicap on Feb. 17 are back in a high-end turf-mile allowance, the feature Sunday at Fair Grounds. That is all well and good, but the most interesting horse in the race is not among that quintet.

Forever Unbridled worked five furlongs in 1:01.60 on Friday at Fair Grounds as she continues her preparations for the $10 million Dubai World Cup on March 31.

Forever Unbridled, coming off six- and seven-furlong works the last two Fridays, galloped out six furlongs in 1:14.60, trainer Dallas Stewart said.

“She worked great, came out of it great,” Stewart said Friday.
