Encino
Colt by Nyquist – Glittering Jewel, by Bernardini
Bred in Kentucky by Godolphin
The big question for Encino coming into last Saturday’s Grade 3 Lexington Stakes at Keeneland was how he might handle dirt after making his first three starts on Turfway Park’s Tapeta. But the colt, who won gamely to move himself into the Kentucky Derby field based on points, has a classic-type dirt pedigree.
