Inside Information could be final start for Tequilita

HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. – Tequilita, a two-time graded stakes winner at Gulfstream, could be making the final start of her career when likely to come favored Saturday in the weekend highlight, the Grade 2, $200,000 Inside Information.
Trained by Michael Matz for his wife, owner-breeder Dorothy “Dee Dee” Matz, Tequilita most recently was third in the Feb. 16 Royal Delta. The 5-year-old mare has earned $680,800 from 20 prior starts.
“We’ll see how she runs Saturday and decide whether or not to run her once more” in the April 6 Madison at Keeneland, Michael Matz said.
Other fillies and mares expected for the seven-furlong Inside Information when entries were released Wednesday were Cairenn, Pacific Gale, Teresa Z, and probably two or three more.
Flameaway to Ben Ali
Flameway, whose victory in the Challenger Stakes last weekend at Tampa was his first in 13 months, will make his next start in the Grade 3 Ben Ali on April 13 at Keeneland, trainer Mark Casse said.
Casse also said Hoffa’s Union, a recent private purchase, goes next in the March 30 Florida Derby at Gulfstream and that his two Tampa Bay Derby runners, Sir Winston (fifth) and Dream Maker (10th), likely run back in the April 6 Blue Grass at Keeneland.
