What a View pointing to Shadwell Turf Mile

What a View, the winner of the Grade 1 Frank Kilroe Mile and two other stakes this year, will return from a summer break in the $1 million Shadwell Turf Mile at Keeneland on Oct. 8, trainer Kenny Black said.

What a View has not raced since winning the Grade 3 Thunder Road Stakes at Santa Anita on April 9. A 5-year-old gelding, What a View was sidelined with foot problems in the spring and resumed training in July. Black said What a View is a candidate for the Breeders’ Cup Mile at Santa Anita on Nov. 5.

“We’d like to stay at home, but it’s too much money to pass up,” Black said of the Keeneland race.

An alternative at Santa Anita is the $200,000 City of Hope Mile on Oct. 8.

What a View has won 6 of 12 starts and earned $592,148 for Old English Rancho and Sal and Patsy Berumen.

◗ Accelerate may face a few of the runners he beat in the Aug. 26 Shared Belief Stakes at Del Mar in the $200,000 Los Alamitos Derby next Saturday. Runner-up Semper Fortis and third-place finisher Taman Guard also are candidates for the Los Alamitos Derby.

Nominations for the Grade 2 Los Alamitos Derby were scheduled to close Friday.
