Scottish Lassie, the two-time Grade 1-winning filly, was scheduled to arrive in New York mid-week to continue preparations for her 4-year-old season that likely won’t get started until late spring. Meanwhile, her Jorge Abreu-trained stablemate Jody’s Pride worked at Belmont Park on Sunday morning as she eyes a return to turf in the Plenty of Grace Stakes on April 4 at Aqueduct. Scottish Lassie won the Grade 1 Frizette at 2 and last year she took Grade 1 Coaching Club American Oaks by 15 1/2 lengths. Scottish Lassie finished fourth in the Grade 1 Cotillion on Sept. 20 at Parx Racing then was scratched from the Breeders’ Cup Distaff after being off in her right front leg a few days before the race. Scottish Lassie was cataloged in the Night of Stars sale at Fasig-Tipton on Nov. 3, but she failed to reach her reserve of $4 million. Her owners, Sportsmen Stable and Parkland Thoroughbreds, wanted to race her as a 4-year-old. :: Access the most trusted data and information in horse racing!

Jody’s Pride is winless in three starts on turf, but she finished third, beaten just 1 1/4 lengths, in the Grade 2 Ladies Turf Sprint at Kentucky Downs. In her lone start this year, Jody’s Pride finished eighth in the Grade 2 Inside Information, a seven-furlong dirt race at Gulfstream Park. Jody’s Pride worked back on Feb. 8 but spiked a fever shortly thereafter. She returned to the work tab Sunday breezing a half-mile in 50.31 seconds at Belmont, pulling away from the 7-year-old mare Rachel’s Rock late. :: Want to learn more about handicapping and wagering?
