Arrogate ready to work this weekend toward Pegasus World Cup

Arrogate, the winner of the Breeders’ Cup Classic on Nov. 5, continues to train for the $12 million Pegasus World Cup at Gulfstream Park on Jan. 28 despite days of rain in the last week in Southern California.
Trainer Bob Baffert said on Thursday that he intends to work Arrogate this weekend and that the 4-year-old colt remains on schedule.
“We’re just training day to day,” Baffert said. “We’ll get a breeze in.”
Arrogate was among several leading horses to work before and between races last Sunday.
Owned by Juddmonte Farms, Arrogate won the Travers Stakes at Saratoga in August and the BC Classic in his stakes debut against older horses. In the BC Classic, Arrogate beat California Chrome, another contender for the Pegasus World Cup.
California Chrome was shipped from California to Florida last week to train at Gulfstream Park in the buildup to the Pegasus World Cup.
