    • Reigning Horse of the Year Sovereignty (Into Mischief) worked a half-mile at Payson Park on Sunday morning. Also named the Eclipse Award champion 3-year-old of the 2025 season, the Godolphin homebred covered four furlongs in the official time of :49.64. According to the DRF, the colt worked in tandem with GSP Royal Majesty (GB) (Frankel {GB}), finishing a length ahead of his stablemate while galloping out five furlongs in 1:03.88. “I thought he looked great,” Bill Mott told DRF Sunday. “He's been off a while. You'd want six or eight works in him before you run him, I'd think.” According to Mott, the 4-year-old will make his seasonal debut in the GII Oaklawn Handicap on Apr. 18. The champion has now recorded three works since getting KO'd from a start in the GI Breeders' Cup Classic at Del Mar in November. After a three-furlong work at Payson on Feb. 15 (:37.40), the bay covered the same trip (and time) on Feb. 22 prior to Sunday's move.   The post Sovereignty Works at Payson, Targets Oaklawn Handicap appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

    • St. Elias Stable, William H. Lawrence and Glassman Racing's Iron Honor (Nyquist) earned 50 points to the Kentucky Derby when winning Saturday's GIII Gotham at Aqueduct. According to Michele Dollase, assistant to trainer Chad Brown, the colt came out of the race in good order. “He came out of the race great. He ate up and looks good this morning,” said Dollase. “We're on to the next race. As of right now, he is good. He came out of the race really good.” Brown said post-race he will keep the colt at Belmont to prepare for Aqueduct's GII Wood Memorial on Apr. 4. The nine-furlong test is also a Kentucky Derby qualifier. “He came out of the race great. I think he does want to go farther. He only just got here on Wednesday from Florida,” Dollase said. “He really only trained one day here, but still went and did his thing Saturday, which was really impressive.” Iron Honor, who came into Saturday's race off a six-furlong win at the Big A on Dec. 13, exited that effort a little body sore and was given some time at Brown's Payson Park Training Center base. “This horse missed a little training when he shipped down to Florida,” explained Brown. “If you look there was a gap of about a month for the works. He didn't ship in completely healthy and then he came back good. I appreciate the owners for being patient. My team did a great job.” On Saturday over the Belmont dirt training track, the Brown-trained duo of Ottinho (Quality Road) and Schoolyardsuperman (Practical Joke) worked a half-mile together in :49.90. Ottinho was a distant third with his stablemate back in fourth last time out in the nine-furlong Withers on Feb. 6. Ottinho is under consideration for the Wood Memorial. Also on the Gotham card, Klaravich Stables' Current Yield (Nyquist), a debut winner at Tampa in January, picked up 7.5 points towards the Kentucky Oaks after finishing fourth in the Busher Stakes. “She came back fine,” Dollase said. “She's good. She ate up.”   The post Undefeated Iron Honor Exits Gotham Win in Fine Form appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
