LEXINGTON, Ky. – Mystic Guide, the 3 3/4-length winner of the March 27 Dubai World Cup, returned to the Mike Stidham shed row at Keeneland over the weekend after clearing quarantine following his return flight from overseas.

“He came back really well,” Stidham said early Monday. “He’ll stay with me here until the end of the meet, and then we’ll take him back to Fair Hill,” the northern Maryland training center where Stidham has his primary year-round base.

There is no specific target for Mystic Guide, a 4-year-old Godolphin homebred, other than working backward from the Nov. 6 Breeders’ Cup Classic at Del Mar.
