DEL MAR, Calif. – Shedaresthedevil, winner of a maiden special weight race June 13 at Churchill Downs, was recently transferred to trainer Simon Callaghan in California and will have her stakes debut in the Grade 2 Sorrento Stakes for 2-year-old fillies at six furlongs on Aug. 3 at Del Mar.

Shedaresthedevil was bought by Qatar Racing, Callaghan said. Shedaresthedevil won at 5 1/2 furlongs in her debut, closing from fourth in a field of eight to win by 3 1/4 lengths. She was trained by Norm Casse for Glencrest Farm.

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. – Imperial Hint, the dominant winner of last year’s Grade 1, $350,000 Alfred G. Vanderbilt Handicap, will face top sprinter Mitole and five others in Saturday’s 35th renewal of the Vanderbilt going six furlongs.

Imperial Hint, the beaten favorite in last year’s Breeders’ Cup Sprint, is making his first start since he finished third in the Group 1 Dubai Golden Shaheen on March 30 in Dubai.

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. – Two-time Dubai World Cup winner Thunder Snow arrived in Saratoga on Monday and cleared quarantine early Wednesday morning to train for a start in the Grade 1, $1 million Whitney on Aug. 3.

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. – Bigger Picture and Sadler’s Joy finished second and third in the 2017 Bowling Green Stakes. Sadler’s Joy was third and Bigger Picture fourth in last year’s running of the Bowling Green.

Saturday, those two veterans will try again for a victory in the Bowling Green. They are part of a 13-horse field entered in the 1 3/8-mile turf race.

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. – Though his public comments made it sound like he was taking a wait-and-see approach to running War of Will in Saturday’s Grade 2, $600,000 Jim Dandy Stakes, trainer Mark Casse was confident all along his Preakness winner was going to run in this stepping-stone to the Grade 1 Travers.

“I wasn’t saying that, but I would have been surprised if he didn’t make it,” Casse said Wednesday. “I was leaving myself an out. I always felt like we were going to run in the Jim Dandy.”

Covfefe is scheduled to have her final pre-race breeze Friday at Churchill for the Grade 1 Test Stakes on Aug. 3 at Saratoga.

“We won’t ask her for too much,” said trainer Brad Cox, who is headed back to Saratoga this weekend but has spent much of this summer in Louisville. “She had a fantastic breeze here last week,” referring to a six-furlong work in 1:11.20 last Friday, which was her third breeze since the filly finished a close third in the June 22 Roxelana at Churchill.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. – It’s usually something important that pulls trainer Dale Romans away from his summer haven at Saratoga. The second start for a 2-year-old maiden named Dennis’ Moment qualifies.

“We think he’s a good horse, possibly one of my best,” said Romans.

Dennis’ Moment will run in the seventh race Saturday at Ellis Park in western Kentucky, and Romans will be on hand. With his daily training at Churchill Downs being overseen by longtime Romans assistant Baldemar Bahena, the Tiznow colt will try to erase the dubious memory of his eventful June 23 debut at Churchill.

ETOBICOKE, Ontario - Trainer Mike Doyle, who doubles as a racing consultant for Stronach Stable, said the popular 2017 Queen’s Plate winner Holy Helena is spending some downtime this summer at his Woodbine barn in preparation for a fall campaign here.

Formerly based in New York with trainer Jimmy Jerkens, Holy Helena is coming off a victory over another Canadian champion, Starship Jubilee, in the Grade 2 Dance Smartly here June 29.

After cards were canceled last Friday and Saturday at Ellis Park because of oppressive heat, the first of two possible makeup dates will be run Monday. Double entries for the coming Sunday and Monday cards were to be drawn Thursday.

Ellis racing secretary Dan Bork said a decision will wait on whether a second makeup date will be held on a Monday in August. “It’ll depend on how fans respond,” said Bork. “If it’s well received, we’ll plan a second one. If not, we’ll probably just tack on races as the meet goes on.”

ETOBICOKE, Ontario – A surface change to dirt and blinkers off were two keys to victory for Tone Broke in Tuesday’s $400,000 Prince of Wales Stakes, the middle leg of the Canadian Triple Crown at Fort Erie.

Based at Churchill Downs with trainer Steve Asmussen, Tone Broke had zero synthetic-track experience when he finished a creditable third to One Bad Boy and Avie’s Flatter in the $1 million Queen’s Plate on the Tapeta on June 29 at Woodbine.
