Free Like a Girl emerged from her win in the $100,000 Magnolia on Oct. 11 at Delta Downs in good order and will likely see stakes action in December at Oaklawn Park.
Trainer Chasey Deville Pomier said Tuesday that the $150,000 Mistletoe for fillies and mares at a mile Dec. 14 is a target for the mare, who is the all-time leading earner among Louisiana-breds at $1.9 million.
Last December, Free Like a Girl ran in her native Louisiana and won the Ladies Distaff on Champions Day at Fair Grounds, but that race is not on the schedule for 2024.
Glee to Keeneland
Glee, who was a 15-length winner of the E.L. Gaylord Memorial on the undercard of the Oklahoma Derby, is scheduled to make her next start at Keeneland.
Trainer Steve Asmussen said Friday she is being pointed to the $200,000 Myrtlewood for 2-year-old fillies at six furlongs on Oct. 25.
Glee set a quick pace and drew out in the Gaylord, for a career-high Beyer Speed Figure of 78.
“She was extremely impressive,” Asmussen said.
