Covfefe goes easily in final breeze for Test Stakes
Barbara D. Livingston Covfefe, bound for the Test Stakes at Saratoga on Aug. 3, broke a 29-year-old track record at Pimlico in the Miss Preakness on May 17.
LOUISVILLE, Ky. - Covfefe had her final breeze for the Grade 1 Test next Saturday (Aug. 3) at Saratoga, going a half-mile Friday in 47.80 seconds over a fast track at Churchill.
“Nice and easy,” said trainer Brad Cox. “I didn’t need her to do too much. Her last work was the big one.”
Owned by the LNJ Foxwoods of the Roth family, Covfefe will be looking to rebound off a third-place finish in the June 22 Roxelana at Churchill. The daughter of Into Mischief shattered a 29-year-old Pimlico record for six furlongs in her preceding start, the May 17 Miss Preakness.
