STANTON, Del. - Despite winning the Grade 1 Delaware Handicap with I'm a Chatterbox the previous afternoon, Sunday morning was a typical work day for trainer Larry Jones. By 9 a.m. he had already been to the track on nine horses, and he still had three more to go.

DEL MAR, Calif. -- Beholder worked seven furlongs  in 1:27 on Sunday morning at Del Mar in her penultimate work for the Grade 1 Clement Hirsch in 13 days.

With jockey Gary Stevens up, Beholder broke off four lengths behind a workmate at the six-furlong pole, came through inside her mate through the lane, was two in front passing the wire, and completed her drill going out to the seven-furlong pole. She went off slowly -- the first half-mile in 51.20 seconds -- but flew through the final quarter in 24 seconds.

Three of the leading members of the 3-year-old division prepped for assignments later this month with five-furlong works Saturday morning at Saratoga.

Stablemates Destin, the Belmont Stakes runner-up, and Stradivari, fourth in the Preakness and fifth in the Belmont, went in company in 1:02.35 after posting early splits of 24.60 and 37.49 seconds, both going easily throughout. They galloped out six furlongs in 1:15.92.

"Kind of nice, steady, maintenance kind of moves," said trainer Todd Pletcher. "I thought they both did fine."

DEL MAR, Calif. – In less than a minute at Del Mar on Saturday morning, California Chrome zoomed through a five-furlong workout and erased any concern about his condition in advance of the $200,000 San Diego Handicap next Saturday.

At times in recent weeks, California Chrome had satisfactory works at Los Alamitos but did not display as much speed or energy as trainer Art Sherman would have preferred. A change of scenery and another week of exercise put Sherman in a brighter mood after Saturday’s high-profile workout.

Retama Park near San Antonio has scheduled six stakes races for its Thoroughbred meet, according to racing secretary James Leatherman. The season opens Sept. 2. Retama will race 26 dates through Nov. 26.

The El Joven and La Senorita, one-mile turf races for 2-year-olds, will share a card Oct. 15. The purse for each race is $75,000. Leatherman said the next round of nominations closes Aug. 12.

Promise Me Silver and Bling On the Music are both being pointed for stakes at Saratoga after dominant wins last weekend at Lone Star Park.

Promise Me Silver was a seven-length winner of the $50,000 Valor Farm Stakes for Texas-bred fillies and mares July 9, covering six furlongs in 1:10.20. She shipped Thursday to Kentucky and from there will travel to Saratoga, said trainer Bret Calhoun.

Promise Me Silver, who races for her breeders, Robert and Myrna Luttrell, will target the $100,000 Shine Again, a seven-furlong race for fillies and mares Aug. 3.

ELMONT, N.Y. – Highland Sky, the runner-up to Deauville in the Grade 1 Belmont Derby, will be pointed to the Grade 1, $450,000 Secretariat Stakes at Arlington Park on Aug. 13, trainer Barclay Tagg said Friday.

Tagg said the 1 1/4 miles of the Secretariat is more appealing to him than the 1 1/16 miles of the Grade 2, $200,000 National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame Stakes at Saratoga on Aug. 5.

“He needs all that,” Tagg said of the distance.

Tagg also likes the extra eight days that Highland Sky will have from the Belmont Derby to the Secretariat.

ELMONT, N.Y. – Travis Stone, best known as the track announcer at Churchill Downs, will make the morning line during the Saratoga meet, which begins next Friday. New York Racing Association officials confirmed the news that Stone first tweeted on Thursday.

Stone will do the morning line in place of Eric Donovan, who will still handle morning-line duties at Aqueduct and Belmont Park. Donovan is also a producer for NYRA television, which will be debuting “Saratoga Live,” a 2 1/2-hour daily program, this summer.

ELMONT, N.Y. – Mohaymen had his strongest breeze Friday since finishing fourth in the Kentucky Derby, working five furlongs in 1:00.66 over the Saratoga main track.

Daily Racing Form clocker Mike Welsch caught Mohaymen’s first three furlongs in 35.80 seconds and his final quarter in 24.86. Welsch caught Mohaymen galloping out six furlongs in 1:14.71. Mohaymen is pointing to either the Grade 2, $600,000 Jim Dandy at Saratoga on July 30 or the Grade 1, $1 million Haskell Invitational at Monmouth Park on July 31.

DEL MAR, Calif. – What a View, a winner of three consecutive stakes at Santa Anita this year, has resumed training after a springtime break necessitated by trouble with his feet.

Trainer Kenny Black said on Friday that What a View has been galloping for two weeks and might start at the Del Mar meet, which runs through Sept. 5.

“We hope he can run toward the end,” Black said. “We pulled the shoes and let his feet grow out.”

What a View, a candidate for the Breeders’ Cup Mile at Santa Anita on Nov. 5, has won 6 of 12 starts and earned $592,148.
