Grade I winners Journalism (Curlin) and Baeza (McKinzie), each among the leading 3-year-old colts of 2025 with GI Breeders' Cup Classic aspirations, drilled Friday morning at Santa Anita in advance of their joint Nov. 1 target. Journalism, who is campaigned by the partnership of Bridlewood Farm, Don Alberto Stable, Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners, Elayne Stables 5 LLC, Robert V. LaPenta, Mrs. John Magnier-Lessee, Derrick Smith-Lessee, and Michael B. Tabor-Lessee, went a half mile in :49. The Michael McCarthy trainee was last seen finishing second to Fierceness (City of Light) in the Aug. 30 GI Pacific Classic Stakes at Del Mar and was registering his fourth work since that effort.

C R K Stable and Grandview Equine's Baeza also worked Friday morning, stopping the clock in :59 (2/33) for five panels. Trained by John Shirreffs, Baeza most recently shipped across the country to win the Sept. 20 GI Pennsylvania Derby at Parx.

Joining Journalism and Baeza on the work tab Friday morning in Arcadia was $3-million OBS March 2-year-old Brant (Gun Runner), an unbeaten 'TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard', who won the Sept. 7 GI Del Mar Futurity at Del Mar. The Zedan Racing Stables runner fired a bullet, getting six furlongs in 1:11.80. Conditioned by Bob Baffert, the 2-year-old is pointing toward the GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile.

Other Friday morning workers at Santa Anita included fellow Breeders' Cup hopefuls Formidable Man (City of Light), five furlongs in 1:01.20; Richi (Chi) (Practical Joke), four furlongs in 49.20; and Hey Nay Nay (Ire) (No Nay Never), five furlongs in 1:00.
