Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted March 28, 2021 Journalists Share Posted March 28, 2021 Godolphin's unbeaten 'TDN Rising Star' Prevalence (Medaglia d'Oro) recorded his final breeze ahead of Saturday's GII Wood Memorial S. presented by Resorts World Casino, covering a half mile in a best-of-30 :47.60 at Palm Meadows Sunday morning. “He worked here this morning at Palm Meadows and it went very well and he's flying up there [to Aqueductus] on Wednesday,” said conditioner Brendan Walsh. “It looks like he's going into the race in good shape. It's another step now, so we'll find out if he can go the two turns as well. This will answer our questions and be a good test for him.” A buzzed-about 8 1/2-length debut winner going seven panels at Gulfstream Jan. 23, the homebred annexed a one-mile optional claimer by three lengths Mar. 11. “He's a very nice, quiet, easy-going horse and I don't think the travel will affect him at all,” Walsh said. “We'll see how he handles the track. He hits me as a horse who can handle any kind of surface.” Others to work in Florida Sunday before shipping to New York included the Saffie Joseph, Jr.-trained pair of GI Carter H. contender Mischevious Alex (Into Mischief) (4f, :47.14, 2/70 at Gulfstream) and GIII Bay Shore S.-bound Drain the Clock (Maclean's Music) (4f, :47.72, 5/70). Joseph will have 12 stalls at Belmont Park this spring. “We're coming in with good horses in 'Alex' and Drain the Clock and it would be nice to get off to a good start,” he said. “I think we have a very strong set of horses.” The post Prevalence Preps for Wood appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
