Newspaperofrecord, who suffered her first defeat when second to Concrete Rose in the Edgewood Stakes at Churchill Downs on May 2, will likely make her next start in the Grade 3, $200,000 Wonder Again Stakes at Belmont on June 6, trainer Chad Brown said Tuesday.
In her first start since winning the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf, Newspaperofrecord appeared to be cruising on the front end in the Edgewood. But she weakened in the stretch and gave no resistance to Concrete Rose who galloped past Newspaperofrecord to win by 3 3/4 lengths.
