?q=100)
ARCADIA, Calif. – Two Rivers Over, the upset winner of the Group 2 Godolphin Mile in Dubai on March 30, worked a half-mile in 49.60 seconds at Santa Anita on Sunday for a potential start in the Grade 1 Metropolitan Handicap at a mile during the Belmont Racing Festival at Saratoga.
The $1 million Met Mile is one of the nation’s leading races at the distance on dirt.
Two Rivers Over had his first workout on Sunday for trainer Doug O’Neill since the successful Dubai trip in which he rallied from the middle of a 13-horse field to prevail by three-quarters of a length.
The O’Neill-trained E J Won the Cup, third by 3 1/2 lengths behind Kentucky Derby hopeful Stronghold in the Grade 1 Santa Anita Derby on April 6, is a candidate for the $300,000 Texas Derby at 1 1/16 miles at Lone Star Park on May 27.
E J Won the Cup worked a half-mile in 47.80 seconds on Sunday.
