ARCADIA, Calif. – The veteran turf runner Gold Phoenix is unlikely to race again until late July after finishing a troubled seventh in the Grade 1 Old Forester Bourbon Turf Classic on Saturday at Churchill Downs.

Trainer Phil D’Amato said at Santa Anita on Sunday that the Grade 2 Eddie Read Stakes at 1 1/8 miles on July 26 at Del Mar is a summertime goal for Gold Phoenix, who has won 11 of 32 starts and earned $2,377,087.

Ottinho, runner-up in the Grade 1 Blue Grass Stakes, will not run in either the Grade 3 Peter Pan Stakes on Saturday at Aqueduct or the Preakness Stakes at Laurel Park on May 16, trainer Chad Brown said.

Brown said Ottinho missed a work on the last weekend of April due to a foot issue, then worked a slow half-mile in 52 seconds by himself Saturday morning at Churchill Downs. Brown did not have an immediate plan for the horse.

Brown said that Tariff Mindset, a horse he was originally planning to run in the Peter Pan, is on the shelf for a little while.

Trainer Chad Brown said Golden Tempo’s victory in the Kentucky Derby was well-deserved by his former assistant Cherie DeVaux, who became the first female trainer to win the Kentucky Derby. DeVaux went out on her own in 2018 after working as Brown’s New York assistant for eight years.

T O Elvis, dominant winner of Saturday’s Grade 1 Churchill Downs Stakes, will be pointed to the Breeders’ Cup Sprint on Oct. 31 at Keeneland. He will likely have one start before then and it’s possible that start could come in New York.

T O Elvis, who left Churchill Downs on Sunday morning to head to Chicago before flying back home to Japan, was originally slated to run in a race at the Royal Ascot meeting, said Yuto Kumagai, who works with the connections of T O Elvis, including trainer Daisuke Takayanagi.

ARCADIA, Calif. – Four of trainer Michael McCarthy’s stakes runners at Churchill Downs and Santa Anita last weekend are likely to scatter across the United States – and perhaps over the Atlantic – for their next starts.

McCarthy won three stakes on Saturday – the Grade 1 American Turf Stakes with Stark Contrast and Grade 2 Twin Spires Turf Sprint with Yellow Card at Churchill Downs, and the Grade 2 Charles Whittingham Stakes with Mondego at Santa Anita.

Timer Moses, a 9-year-old maiden, had a one-race career.

After finishing sixth of seven in an $8,500 claiming race for maidens at Turf Paradise on Friday, Timer Moses was sold privately over the weekend, according to owner and trainer Chad Story.

“He’s going to West Virginia to be a trail horse,” Story said.

Timer Moses broke slowly from an inside post in Friday’s race at five furlongs. He trailed by 10 lengths early and was beaten 6 3/4 lengths as the 5-2 second choice. Rocksalot, the 2-1 favorite, won the race by a nose over 7-2 River’s Benchmark.
