Leading jockey Rafael Bejarano has been granted an appeal of a three-day suspension for careless riding last weekend at Santa Anita, according to his agent, Joe Ferrer.

Bejarano was cited for his ride aboard Jazzy Josh in the Pasadena Stakes last Saturday. Jazzy Josh, who was near the front early, finished eighth. Bejarano was cited for failing to maintain a straight course through the stretch and causing interference. Turning into the stretch, Jazzy Josh drifted slightly to the inside. The stewards did not conduct an inquiry, and no rider lodged an objection.

HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. – Devine Aida seemed destined for graded stakes on turf. Then the skies opened up, and heavy rain forced the Feb. 28 Herecomesthebride Stakes from turf to dirt.

When Devine Aida romped to a 6 3/4-length victory in the Herecomesthebride, it opened up further dirt possibilities for the daughter of Unbridled’s Song. On Wednesday, she was supplemented to Saturday’s Grade 2, $250,000 Gulfstream Park Oaks, one of seven stakes on the undercard of Saturday’s 14-race Florida Derby program.

NEW ORLEANS – I'm a Chatterbox went off at 8-1 when she led all the way to win the Silverbulletday Stakes by eight lengths, and she was a 3-1 favorite when she stormed from behind to win the Grade 3 Rachel Alexandra by 2 1/2 lengths.

She'll likely be an odds-on favorite when she breaks from the No.  6 post in an eight-filly field running Saturday in the $400,000, Grade 2 Fair Grounds Oaks on the Louisiana Derby undercard.

Shared Belief, the dominant older horse in the nation this year, worked five furlongs in 1:01.80 at Golden Gate Fields on Tuesday for a start in Arkansas or West Virginia next month.

Trainer Jerry Hollendorfer said the options are the $600,000 Oaklawn Handicap in Arkansas on April 11 or the $1.5 million Charles Town Classic in West Virginia on April 19.

“We’re still thinking,” Hollendorfer said. “I’m not sure what we’ll do.”

ARCADIA, Calif. – Ocho Ocho Ocho, the winner of the $1 million Delta Jackpot Stakes in Louisiana last November but eighth in the Grade 2 San Felipe Stakes on March 7, is likely to run in the $1 million Blue Grass Stakes at Keeneland on April 4.

Trainer Jim Cassidy said on Wednesday that he is “probably leaning toward Keeneland” as opposed to a start in the $1 million Santa Anita Derby the same day. The Blue Grass Stakes and Santa Anita Derby are run at 1 1/8 miles and are key preps for Triple Crown races.

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates – On Aug. 16 at Arlington, Euro Charline won the Grade 1 Beverly D. Stakes by three-quarters of a length over the excellent mare Stephanie’s Kitten. She has yet to perform an encore.

Racing for trainer Marco Botti at Arlington, Euro Charline was transferred to Todd Pletcher for a North American fall campaign but suffered a setback and never raced for Pletcher. Instead, she was returned to England and rejoined Botti’s barn. On Saturday, she makes her first start since the Beverly D. in the $6 million Dubai Turf.

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates – For what it’s worth – and who doesn’t appreciate a nice, round number – this is the 20th edition of the Dubai World Cup, which means it was 19 years ago this week that Cigar held off Soul of the Matter and put the World Cup on the map.

Far From Over and Daredevil may both be trained by Todd Pletcher and running in the same race, but their preparations for the Grade 1, $1 million Wood Memorial at Aqueduct on April 4 will be a little different.

HOT SPRINGS, Ark. – Work All Week is back to, well, work.

On a sunny Wednesday morning at Oaklawn Park, the champion had his first breeze since winning the Breeders’ Cup Sprint. He went a half-mile in 48.20 seconds on a fast track. Work All Week had been in training at an Ocala, Fla., farm since Feb. 1 and arrived at Oaklawn last Tuesday.

“He went real good,” said Roger Brueggemann, who trains the Eclipse Award-winning sprinter of 2014 for Midwest Thoroughbreds. “It was just his first work, and we wanted to go easy.”

The California-bred with the humble pedigree and the first-time, one-in-a-million owners always has been a racing outsider, and so it will be Saturday night at Meydan Racecourse when California Chrome breaks from post 9 in the $10 million Dubai World Cup.
