Rematch brewing between Call Pat, Untapable in Apple Blossom
Coady Photography Call Pat, who beat Untapable by a neck in the Azeri, are likely to clash again in the April 15 Apple Blossom Handicap.
Call Pat and the champion Untapable, who were separated by a neck when finishing one-two in the Grade 2, $350,000 Azeri last Saturday at Oaklawn, are headed for a rematch in the Grade 1, $600,000 Apple Blossom Handicap on April 15 at Oaklawn. Call Pat won her second straight graded stakes at the meet and used her patented closing kick to get up nearing the wire. Trainer Brad Cox said Call Pat came out of the race “awesome” and will target the Apple Blossom.
Trainer Steve Asmussen said Untapable, who was making her first start since October, exited the Azeri in excellent condition and will train locally up to the Apple Blossom.
