Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted 2 hours ago Journalists Posted 2 hours ago Undefeated GII Saratoga Special victor Ewing (Knicks Go) tallied his first workout Sunday morning at Oaklawn Park since arriving at the venue last Monday. Out to work four furlongs on the main track with Prairie Meadows and Will Rogers Downs riding champion Kylee Jordan in the irons, the grey went over a fast track during the 15-minute workers-only session immediately after the renovation break. Working in company with MGSP Classic Car Wash (Noble Bird), the half-mile was clocked in :47.40 and equaled the fastest time of the morning. Ewing's workmate came in at :49.20 (32/119) at the distance. “A group in front of him broke off and he kind of just wanted to go with them,” said assistant trainer Caden Arthur, who oversees Casse's Oaklawn division. “He's a racehorse. He wanted to pass them. He wanted to be in front and he did that with ease. Kylee was just trying to take it easy with him and she did a good job trying to manage that. He looked great going by.” Casse has indicated that Ewing could make a 3-year-old debut in January before bridging into a Kentucky Derby points race. The grey is unraced since his sensational Saratoga Special victory in August and was being pointed to the GI Claiborne Breeders' Futurity at Keeneland back in October before being scratched out in favor of a freshening.
