Newspaperofrecord may face Uni in Just a Game

ELMONT, N.Y. – Trainer Chad Brown said he would like to run Newspaperofrecord, winner of Saturday’s Grade 3 Intercontinental, back in the Grade 1 Just a Game on June 27.
The race does come back just three weeks after Newspaperofrecord carved out fast fractions en route to winning the Intercontinental by four lengths. She earned a career-best 104 Beyer Speed Figure for her first start in 11 months.
“She had been training really well, she was sharp and ready to run,” Brown said. “She looked good this morning, we’ll get her back to the track here in a few days, see how she looks out there, and try to gauge the best I can if she’s ready to run right back in the Just a Game.”
Brown also is likely to run Uni, last year’s female turf champion, in the Just a Game.
“If both of them belong in the race, I’ll put them there,” Brown said. “I’ve always been that way.”
