Cavorting works for Frizette
ELMONT, N.Y. – The aggressive manner in which Cavorting gallops prompts trainer Kiaran McLaughlin to work the stakes-winning 2-year-old filly infrequently.
On Friday, and for the first time since Aug. 29, Cavorting worked, breezing four furlongs in 47.49 seconds over a fast Belmont main track. Cavorting went her first quarter in 23.39 seconds, her second quarter in 24.10, and galloped out five furlongs in 1:01.10.
Cavorting, the winner of a maiden race at Belmont and the Grade 2 Adirondack at Saratoga, is targeting the Grade 1 Frizette at Belmont on Oct. 4.
“Went well, and she will work one more time for the Frizette,” McLaughlin said. “She’s fit and ready to go. She trains aggressively, she always has. But she’s a very talented, athletic, nice filly, and we try to keep the weight on her.”
