?q=100)
SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. – The Queens M G, 44-1 winner of Thursday’s $175,000 Schuylerville Stakes, will likely be wheeled back in the Grade 3, $200,000 Adirondack Stakes on Aug. 4, trainer Saffie Joseph Jr. said Friday.
“Why wait so long?” Joseph said, referring to waiting for the Grade 1 Spinaway on Sept. 3. “Strike while the iron’s hot.”
Joseph was at Saratoga on Friday morning but on Thursday was stuck in a Florida airport, where he watched the race on his phone.
“We got delayed, but it made for a good flight,” he said.
The Queens M G was sent off a long price because of her last-place finish as the favorite in the Astoria Stakes on June 6. Joseph said she got bumped out of the gate in the Astoria, which may have played a role in her poor performance.
The Queens M G got a 73 Beyer Speed Figure for the Schuylerville.
