Dennis' Moment nearing return to races

LEXINGTON, Ky. – Trainer Dale Romans has been poring over the Churchill condition book for a race for Dennis’ Moment, the star-crossed colt who went to the sidelines following a last-place finish in the Feb. 29 Fountain of Youth at Gulfstream Park. Dennis’ Moment breezed five furlongs Saturday in 1:00.20 in his fourth work on the comeback trail.
“We basically started all over with him,” Romans said. “He’s back with the right attitude. Wherever we run him, he’s going to run big.”
Dennis’ Moment won two of his first three starts in such a flashy manner that he was an odds-on favorite in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile at Santa Anita last November. He nearly fell at the start, costing himself all chance, and had only the poor Fountain of Youth effort after that. He’s still eligible for a second-level allowance condition.
