SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. – Three stakes winners, five winners of their only start, and a game of musical jockeys make Sunday’s Grade 1, $300,000 Spinaway Stakes at Saratoga quite the handicapping puzzle. Wonder Wheel, off two impressive victories at Churchill Downs, could warrant a slight edge in this field of 10 for the Spinaway, a race the last two years has produced the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies winner and subsequent Eclipse champion. Trainer Mark Casse has similar aspirations for Wonder Wheel, a daughter of Into Mischief who won a maiden race at Churchill Downs on June 3 and then came back to dominate the Debutante at Churchill on July 4. Casse said he specifically waited two months to run her back, as he plans a busy fall campaign for her. “As much as the Grade 1 Spinaway is a big race to win, I have other plans,” Casse said, acknowledging the Alcibiades on Oct. 7 and the BC Juvenile Fillies on Nov. 4 are his objectives. “Hopefully, that doesn’t come back and bite me in the butt.” Wonder Wheel, owned by D J Stable, took advantage of a four-ply speed duel to come from off the pace in her debut win. In the Debutante, she was put on the lead by Tyler Gaffalione, took some early pressure from Empire of My Own, then drew off to win by 6 3/4 lengths. “She did that well within herself,” Casse said. Wonder Wheel has been at Saratoga and has put forth some solid works leading up to this. Gaffalione has a commitment at Kentucky Downs on Sunday, so Casse has retained the services of Hall of Fame jockey John Velazquez. Wonder Wheel drew post 9, which was pleasing to Casse. “She’ll settle, but she’s never taken a lot of kickback,” said Casse, who won the 2019 Spinaway with Perfect Alibi and the 2016 edition with Pretty City Dancer, who dead-heated with Sweet Loretta. Like Wonder Wheel, Just Cindy is 2 for 2 with a dominant maiden win at Churchill followed by a similar 2 1/4-length victory in the Grade 3 Schuylerville here on opening day. Trainer Eddie Kenneally noted the Saratoga main track was much deeper earlier in the meet than it is now. Kenneally, who is not stabled here this summer, prepared Just Cindy at Keeneland for the Spinaway. “She’s been doing great,” Kenneally said. “She’s matured some. She’s had some good works at Keeneland since she ran. The track is very different now than it was opening day. That will maybe be something new for our filly.” Just Cindy, a daughter of Justify owned by Clarkland Farm, will have a new rider for the Spinaway. With Irad Ortiz Jr. seemingly committed to Prank following that filly’s debut win July 31, Kenneally locked up the services of Luis Saez. Prank got hurt and is not running, so Ortiz has wound up on Aunt Shirley. Aunt Shirley, trained by Rodolphe Brisset for WinStar Farm, won her debut going five furlongs on Aug. 5 at Ellis Park. She was in chase mode from the start and came through a narrow opening on the rail and won a prolonged stretch duel with Twice as Sweet by a half-length. The pair were nearly seven lengths in front of the rest of the field, and Twice as Sweet came back to win her next start, albeit on turf. “She showed a lot of class and maturation to do that first time out,” Brisset said. “We know she is going to have to run faster, but we think seven furlongs is going to help us.” Aunt Shirley, a daughter of Justify, breaks from post 8. After running fourth in her debut, Naughty Gal came back to win a maiden race by 9 1/4 lengths and the Grade 3 Adirondack by 2 1/2 for trainer D. Wayne Lukas and Holy Cow Stable. A six-time Spinaway winner, Lukas believes the seven furlongs is going to be beneficial for Naughty Gal, who has Jose Ortiz replacing Saez. Todd Pletcher also is a six-time Spinaway winner. Sunday, he’ll send out Kaling, a good-looking debut winner here July 24. She beat the well-regarded Rarify, trained by Wesley Ward, by 2 3/4 lengths under Flavien Prat. “She was well away,” Pletcher said of the start of Kaling’s debut win. “The Wesley Ward filly went after her, so Flavien decided to ease back off of her. She did that professionally and finished up good.” Pletcher isn’t thrilled that Kaling, a daughter of Practical Joke owned by Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners, drew the rail. “Obviously, you don’t want to draw the rail going seven-eighths with an inexperienced horse, but hopefully she can overcome it,” he said. American Rockette, a half-sister to 2020 Spinaway runner-up Frank’s Rockette, enters the Spinaway off a debut win in an off-the-turf race here July 21. Despite her sister’s prowess on dirt, American Rockette, a daughter of American Pharoah owned by Frank Fletcher, was intended for the turf. Trainer Bill Mott said that given how well she ran on dirt, “you’re sort of locked in to give her another try.” American Rockette breaks from the outside post in this 10-horse field. Miss Georgie, Apple Picker, Leave No Trace, and Sabra Tuff complete the field. The Spinaway goes as race 11 on a 12-race card that begins at 12:35 p.m.
