Margoth’s multiple graded-stakes winner Gunnevera (Dialed In) breezed over Gulfstream Park West’s main track Saturday morning in preparation for a tilt at the Jan. 26 GI Pegasus World Cup Invitational at Gulfstream Park. It was the second work for the 4-year-old since finishing second behind Accelerate (Lookin At Lucky) in the GI Breeders’ Cup Classic Nov. 3. Both have come with Irad Ortiz Jr. up, who was aboard in the Classic and will return aboard in the Pegasus.

“Everything went very good,” trainer Antonio Sano confirmed. “He went five furlongs in 1:01.2, 1:01.3. It was a very good work.”

Gunnevera, third behind Horse of the Year Gun Runner in this year’s Pegasus, is expected to work again Saturday morning.

“I am so happy with my horse,” Sano said. “He worked very good and he came back very fresh and looked very good.”

Winner of the GII Saratoga Special S. at two, the chestnut won last season’s Gulfstream’s GII Fountain of Youth S. ahead of a third-place effort behind Audible (Into Mischief) in the GI Florida Derby. Third in the GI Kentucky Derby, Audible finished runner up in Saturday’s Harlan’s Holiday S. He’s also been listed as a possible candidate for the Pegasus.
