Chance It scratches from Fountain of Youth due to post position:Trainer Saffie Joseph Jr. scratched his top 3-year-old prospect Chance It from Saturday’s Grade 2 Fountain of Youth, citing the poor post position as the reason for bypassing the important Kentucky Derby prep with a horse who was among the leading contenders in the 1 1/16-mile fixture. Chance It will now run next Saturday in the Tampa Bay Derby. Mike Welsch's Fountain of Youth 2020 picks and analysis: CHANCE IT couldn't be training better, but obviously the post-position draw is a major issue in a bulky lineup swelled by several who really have no right to be in this spot. Dennis' Moment ready to get back on track in Fountain of Youth: As Dennis’ Moment galloped around the track the other morning at Gulfstream Park, neck bowed, eager to do more, a visitor with trainer Dale Romans remarked at how well his colt looked. Weekend GamePlan for Feb. 29, 2020: Picks for Fountain of Youth, Palm Beach, Hutcheson: Sometimes a horseplayer or racing fan might wish tracks spread out their high-quality races over a series of cards, but the clustered, multi-race stakes day appears to be here to stay, and even the most jaded railbird would be hard-pressed to find fault with the Saturday program at Gulfstream Park. Dennis' Moment assigned post 5 as favorite for G2 Fountain of Youth @GulfstreamPark; FULL LINEUP (posts, jockeys, odds) HERE: Dennis’ Moment has been assigned post 5 in a surprisingly large field of 12 3-year-olds for the Grade 2, $400,000 Fasig-Tipton Fountain of Youth, to be run Saturday at Gulfstream Park. Kentucky Derby: Fountain of Youth an important first step for Joseph, Chance It: He was bitten early by the racing bug, so much so that, from a young age, training was all he ever wanted to do. He remembers marveling at the exploits of Cigar in the mid 1990s, and in the late 1990s was captivated by the American Triple Crown, seeing the same faces show up every year. Green Light Go out of Fountain of Youth; field of eight expected: Trainer Jimmy Jerkens revealed Tuesday afternoon that his Kentucky Derby hopeful Green Light Go will not run in Saturday’s Grade 2 Fountain of Youth as originally planned after spiking a temperature on Monday night. Paolucci to run longshot The Falcon in Fountain of Youth, Nikki and Papa in Davona Dale: Ron Paolucci resisted the urge to run the maiden filly Nikki and Papa in the Fountain of Youth on Saturday at Gulfstream Park, but perhaps only in deference to his ownership partners.   Horse Jockey Odds 1.

Chance It Tyler Gaffalione SCR Fountain of Youth 2020 card Beyer Figure doesn't give fair read on Tonalist's Shape's chances in Davona Dale: After Tonalist’s Shape earned a career-low 70 Beyer Speed Figure in her last start, some may be concerned that she might not have come back as good at 3 as she was during her juvenile campaign. One person who has no such worries in that regard is the one whose opinion counts the most, her trainer, Saffie Joseph Jr., who expects his undefeated filly to move forward off that effort when she returns in Saturday’s $200,000 Davona Dale at Gulfstream Park. Gulfstream Park Mile could set up for late-running Haikal and Hog Creek Hustle: Haikal and Hog Creek Hustle were given a chance to make the Kentucky Derby last year, came up short in various ways, and have been recast, much to their benefit, as late-running one-turn horses. Female turf stakes come up solid: The ladies will get their turns Saturday at Gulfstream Park. Aside from the Davona Dale, which is a Kentucky Oaks qualifier, three other graded stakes restricted to female runners will serve as secondary features on a spectacular 14-race card culminating with the Fountain of Youth Stakes. Zulu Alpha at peak for Mac Diarmida: Saturday is for the boys, or so it can be argued. Six of the 10 stakes on the huge Fountain of Youth Stakes program Saturday at Gulfstream Park drew lineups comprising male runners, including such longtime fan favorites as the Mac Diarmida and Canadian Turf. Gulfstream Park Mile, Mac Diarmida, Davona Dale top challenging nine-stakes undercard Saturday: Before the Fasig-Tipton Fountain of Youth Stakes culminates an extremely busy day, Gulfstream Park will run nine other stakes, eight of them graded, on a blockbuster Saturday card that starts at 11:30 a.m. Eastern. Vitalogy kicks off season in Palm Beach Stakes: Maxfield isn’t the only promising 3-year-old in the Brendan Walsh barn whose return to action has been highly anticipated. Mr Freeze thriving in advance of Gulfstream Park Mile: Dale Romans is hoping Mr Freeze runs well enough Saturday in a rugged renewal of the Grade 2, $300,000 Gulfstream Park Mile to merit sending the 5-year-old horse to Dubai for the March 28 Godolphin Mile. Zulu Alpha likely favorite in Mac Diarmida: Zulu Alpha is the likely favorite in the Grade 2, $200,000 Mac Diarmida on the Gulfstream Park undercard Saturday based on his 11-1 victory in the Pegasus World Cup Turf.
