Evenly Matched Field Set for Torrey Pines


Recommended Posts

  • Journalists

An evenly matched field of eight is scheduled to line up for Saturday’s GIII Torrey Pines S. at Del Mar. Godolphin’s Classic Fit (Bernardini) should be one of the top betting choices off a runner-up effort behind GI Alabama S. contender Dunbar Road (Quality Road) in Belmont’s GII Mother Goose S. June 29. A second out graduate at Monmouth Park in September, she won an optional claimer on the Presque Isle synthetic a month later and captured the Hut Hut S. next out Dec. 8. The bay was making her seasonal bow in the Mother Goose off an almost seven-month layoff and has every right to improve here.

Bob Baffert can never be overlooked and he saddles Fighting Mad (New Year’s Day) in this test. A debut winner over this strip last August, she was subsequently shelved and returned in a Churchill Downs allowance Apr. 30, which she won by a length. Off the board next out behind recent GI Test S. winner Covfefe (Into Mischief) in the GIII Miss Preakness S. May 17, she checked in second in a local optional claimer last out July 19.

Pam and Martin Wygod homebred Into Chocolate (Into Mischief) earned an 81 Beyer Speed Figure for her second-out graduation at Santa Anita June 9 and was second last time over this track and trip July 26. Hollywood Hills (Hoorayforhollywood) and Sneaking Out (Indian Evening) finished just a nose apart in the Cal-bred Fleet Treat S. July 18 and they both return in this spot.
