Monzon, who comes off a sixth-place finish in the Peter Pan, remained on course for a start in the June 11 Belmont Stakes with a six-furlong workout at Sagamore Farm in Maryland on Tuesday morning.
BELMONT STAKES: Replays, contenders, and news updates »
According to trainer Nacho Correas, Monzon was timed in 1:16 for one lap over the training track at Sagamore, the legendary farm once owned by Alfred Vanderbilt II and now being revitalized by Kevin Plank.
“He’s doing great,” Correas said by telephone. “He worked like a monster.”
Correas said Monzon completed his final quarter mile in 23.80 seconds, and final furlong in 11.60 seconds.
“He will work again next Tuesday, most likely, but this was my key work for him,” Correas said.
Correas said Monzon will ship to Belmont Park on the eve of the Belmont Stakes, the final leg of the Triple Crown.
“The night before or very early that morning,” he said. “If you travel during the day, there’s lots of traffic and lots of heat.”
Best Bets
CAPTURED posted his career-best figure in his maiden win three back, his only dirt route try besides his latest, and in that race he had a legitimate excuse, trying to rally while down inside on a day when outside speed dominated early on; expecting a much better effort from him here, as he should get better fractions, and hopefully a more even strip. KOBEL is one of the likely pacesetters, and he could be tough to reel in if he gets away uncontested on the lead; latest was better than it may appear, as he was caught up in an early duel before tiring.
