Time and Motion, prepping for a meeting with Lady Eli in the Grade 1 Jenny Wiley at Keeneland on April 15, blazed five furlongs in 58.20 seconds Sunday morning over the Palm Meadows turf course. She went her first three furlongs in 34.68 seconds and came home in 23.52.

“I wanted to go in 59, but inside the dogs you’re naturally going to go a little quicker,” trainer Jimmy Toner said. “She’s had two nice breezes here. We’ll take her to Lexington on Monday and give her a little maintenance half on Sunday. She came to hand a lot quicker than I thought, so I might as well go for it.”

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. - Three-year-olds were in action Saturday morning at all venues in Florida preparing for upcoming stakes that their connections hope land them in the May 6 Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs.

At Palm Beach Downs, One Liner, undefeated winner of the Grade 3 Southwest Stakes, worked five furlongs in 1:01.91 under jockey John Velazquez. As of Saturday, One Liner remains under consideration for either next Saturday’s Grade 2, $750,000 Wood Memorial at Aqueduct, or the Grade 1, $1 million Arkansas Derby on April 15 at Oaklawn Park.

The Super Derby is going green.

The Super Derby, the signature race for Louisiana Downs since Temperence Hill won the inaugural running in 1980, will be moved to the grass for the first time this year, said Trent McIntosh, assistant general manager of Louisiana Downs. The date of the Super Derby will be Sept. 9.

“Today, there are a lot fewer 3-year-old races on the grass,” McIntosh said. “We want our key race to have the best and largest field we can put out there, and making the move to the turf, there’s an opportunity to have a better overall quality field.”

A U.S. District Court judge in eastern Kentucky has denied a request by Keeneland to dismiss a lawsuit filed by trainer Michael Dickinson over the enforcement of a judgment related to Dickinson’s patent for an artificial racing surface.

The New York stewards suspended owner Raj Jagnanan for 30 days and fined him $1,500 for having a bottle of the medication albuterol in his car. Albuterol is a bronchodilator that is only permitted to be in the possession of a licensed veterinarian.

The suspension begins Monday, and Jagnanan will not be able to run horses in his name or assist with any aspect of ownership during the suspension.

NEW ORLEANS – Steve Asmussen could be excused for being sleepy or wondering where he was on Wednesday morning here at Fair Grounds, and not for the usual reason for people who visit this city and overindulge.

WHO’S HOT

The Grade 2, $1 million Blue Grass Stakes on April 8 at Keeneland lost one significant player but picked up another on Tuesday as the connections of Classic Empire and Practical Joke finalized plans for their dual Grade 1-winning 3-year-old colts.

Classic Empire, the champion 2-year-old male of 2016, will make his next start in the Grade 1, $1 million Arkansas Derby at Oaklawn Park on April 15, his trainer, Mark Casse, said Tuesday. The Blue Grass had been under consideration for Classic Empire, who won the Grade 1 Breeders’ Futurity at Keeneland fall.

The connections of Sunland Derby runner-up Conquest Mo Money tried to make the horse a late nominee to the Triple Crown, but they missed the deadline and the nomination was rejected, confirmed a representative from Churchill Downs. In order to run in the Kentucky Derby, he will have to be supplemented to the race at a cost of $200,000 by time of entry.

Co-owner Sandy McKenna said a check for $6,000 to make Conquest Mo Money a late nominee to the Triple Crown was sent March 24. But the deadline for late nominations was March 20.

With a final round of major prep races still to come, the fourth and last pool in the 2017 Kentucky Derby Future Wager opens Friday at noon Eastern for the customary three-day run.
