CYPRESS, Calif. – Tatters to Riches, the winner of the Shared Belief Stakes at Del Mar on Aug. 25, is scheduled to start in the Grade 3 Oklahoma Derby at Remington Park on Sept. 30, co-owner Tim Cohen said Thursday.
Trained by Jeff Mullins, Tatters to Riches has won 3 of 4 starts and earned $133,545. Tatters to Riches is unbeaten in two starts this year, an optional claimer at Del Mar on Aug. 4 and the Shared Belief Stakes at a mile.
The $400,000 Oklahoma Derby is run at 1 1/8 miles and will be the longest race in the career of Tatters to Riches, who is owned by Cohen’s Rancho Temescal and his father Jed’s Red Baron’s Barn.
By Union Rags, Tatters to Riches was purchased for $1 million at a 2-year-olds in training sale last year.
