LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Gun Runner is scheduled for an easy breeze Monday at Churchill Downs as his connections consider running the standout 3-year-old in Friday’s Grade 1 Clark Handicap here. David Fiske, racing manager for owner Winchell Thoroughbreds, said Gun Runner will run in the Clark or ship to Fair Grounds in New Orleans. Gun Runner exited his runner-up finish behind Tamarkuz in the Nov. 4 Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile in excellent shape, trainer Steve Asmussen said. The colt has earned nearly $1.7 million from eight starts this year and is one of the few holdovers from a depleted 3-year-old class that already has lost Nyquist, Exaggerator, and Creator to retirement. Gun Runner would join a core of favorites in the $500,000 Clark that already includes three other Grade 1 winners: Hoppertunity, Shaman Ghost, and Noble Bird. Weight assignments for the 1 1/8-mile race were to be released late Friday, and entries will be taken Tuesday. Stakes coordinator Dan Bork said he expects a field of seven or eight. “It looks like it’s going to be a great race,” Asmussen said. The Clark is one of six graded stakes scheduled for the final week of the 21-day Churchill fall meet. Here’s the outlook on the others: ◗ Grade 2, $200,000 Falls City Handicap (Thursday): Two Grade 1 winners, Birdatthewire (121 pounds) and Include Betty (120), are expected as highweights for this 1 1/8-mile race when entries are drawn Sunday. A field of at least seven fillies and mares is expected to also include Sweetgrass (117), No Fault of Mine (116), Romantic Vision (115), Alotta Skirt (113), and Walkabout (112). ◗ Grade 3, $100,000 River City Handicap (Thursday): A near-capacity field of 14 is expected for this Thanksgiving Day co-feature, with Are You Kidding Me the likely starting highweight at 122 pounds. Other probable starters for the 1 1/8-mile turf race include Pleuven (118), Granny’s Kitten (117), Taghleeb (116), and Allied Air Raid (115). ◗ Grade 2, $200,000 Mrs. Revere (Friday): As usual, a big field is shaping up for one of the final opportunities for 3-year-old turf fillies to remain in their niche before facing older stakes horses. Hawksmoor, third in a tight three-way photo in the Grade 1 Queen Elizabeth II Challenge Cup last month at Keeneland, is the likely favorite in the 1 1/16-mile race. She makes her first start in the care of trainer Arnaud Delacour. ◗ Grade 2, $200,000 Kentucky Jockey Club (Saturday): McCraken and Warrior’s Club, both stakes winners on the opening-day Stars of Tomorrow program Oct. 30, will return in this 1 1/16-mile co-feature of the second Stars card. A field of eight to 10 2-year-old colts and geldings is likely, said Bork. ◗ Grade 2, $200,000 Golden Rod (Saturday): Valadorna, runner-up to Champagne Room in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies, is a solid favorite in this filly counterpart to the KJC. Eight to 10 also are likely for the 1 1/16-mile Golden Rod. New agent for jockey Borel Hall of Fame jockey Calvin Borel will have a new agent after the Churchill fall meet ends Nov. 27. Borel has hired Steve Krajcir for the Oaklawn Park meet that starts Jan. 13, replacing Frank Bernis, who is headed to Fair Grounds. “In previous years, Calvin would take the whole month off, but this year he’s planning on getting to Oaklawn by the first or second week of December and working a lot of horses ahead of the meet,” Krajcir said. “We’re both pretty pumped.” Through Thursday, Borel, 50, had won with 12 of 131 mounts since returning in August from a self-imposed five-month layoff. The three-time Kentucky Derby-winning jockey has 5,158 career wins. ◗ A week after injuring his ankle in a Nov. 10 spill at Churchill, Ricardo Santana Jr. was still limping – but still winning. “I’m fine,” said Santana, who booted home three winners here Thursday, including longshots Linsanity ($52.80) and Controversy ($27). Santana, the leading jockey at Oaklawn in each of the last four years, said he will spend a week or two at home in Panama after Churchill ends. He turned 24 Saturday. ◗ When Linsanity upset the sixth race Thursday, it marked the first win at Churchill in 10 years for trainer Glenn Wismer, whose last victory here had come Nov. 18, 2006, with Miss Ooh La La. Wismer, best known for winning the 1992 Kentucky Oaks with Luv Me Luv Me Not, has campaigned elsewhere in the intervening years. ◗ Bradester is taking a pass on the Clark Handicap, but has remained in training with Eddie Kenneally. The 6-year-old horse won the Grade 1 Stephen Foster Handicap here in June. “He’ll go to Palm Meadows with the rest of the stable after the meet ends,” Kenneally said. ◗ Trainer Tim Glyshaw said Tiz Candy had to be euthanized because of a severe knee injury suffered in the fourth race Wednesday. The 3-year-old filly was claimed from the race for $16,000 by owner John Napariu after winning her first two career starts.
