ARCADIA, Calif. - The two-time champion Beholder will make her 2014 debut in the $75,000 Santa Lucia Stakes at Santa Anita next Sunday.

Beholder was the champion 2-year-old filly of 2012 and the champion 3-year-old filly of 2013. She has not raced since winning the Breeders’ Cup Distaff here last November.

Trainer Richard Mandella had been seeking a race for Beholder’s comeback, and chose the Santa Lucia, run over the track on which she trains daily. Beholder was supplemented to the stakes for $1,500.

Santa Anita Derby winner California Chrome will have his own training time at Los Alamitos for the next few weeks in the buildup to the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs on May 3.

Track officials have dedicated 7:10 to 7:30 a.m. for California Chrome’s daily exercise. The decision was reached after a loose horse was on the track at the same time as California Chrome on Saturday morning, causing anxious moments.

HOT SPRINGS, Ark. -- Speedinthruthecity could get a shot at Grade 1 rivals next month following her powerful win in the $100,000 Carousel at Oaklawn Park. She is being considered for the Grade 1, $300,000 Humana Distaff at Churchill Downs, trainer Steve Asmussen said on Saturday. The seven-furlong race for fillies and mares is May 3.

The Carousel was one of the nine stakes that made up this year’s Racing Festival of the South at Oaklawn, with the $3.3 million series to close Saturday with the Grade 1, $1 million Arkansas Derby.

ARCADIA, Calif. - Beholder, the champion 3-year-old filly of 2013, worked seven furlongs in 1:27.60 at Santa Anita on Saturday, moving closer to her 2014 debut.

Trainer Richard Mandella timed Beholder in 1:27.

“It was a nice, easy cruise,” Mandella said. “She galloped out a mile. We’re getting closer.”

Beholder, who was also the champion 2-year-old filly of 2012, has not raced since winning the Breeders’ Cup Distaff at Santa Anita last November. Owned by B. Wayne Hughes, Beholder has won 8 of 12 starts and $3,075,000.

Moreno was scratched from Saturday’s Grade 2, $600,000 Oaklawn Handicap due to a case of shipping fever, according to trainer Eric Guillot, who added that he is now considering running the horse in the $1.5 million Charles Town Classic on April 19.

Guillot said Moreno had a 102-degree temperature on Thursday in Arkansas following a flight from Southern California. Guillot said Moreno needed to be treated with antibiotics to reduce the fever, which resulted in him having to scratch from Saturday’s race.

LEXINGTON, Ky. – Reload, scratched from the Grade 1 Maker’s 46 Mile on Friday at Keeneland after filling was detected in a tendon, “probably will be all right in time,” trainer Shug McGaughey said Saturday morning.

McGaughey said he wants Dr. Larry Bramlage, who has been out of town, to make a definitive diagnosis.

“We’re waiting for Dr. Bramlage to take a look at it and tell us what we need to do,” said McGaughey. “It’s my guess the horse will be all right, but you don’t know how much time that’ll take.”
