Toinette has won four stakes, including three Grade 2 or Grade 3 races, in her 12-race career. She has finished ninth and fourth in two Grade 1 races and may have another chance to race at that level next month.

Toinette won her 2020 debut in Saturday’s Grade 3 Wilshire Stakes at a mile on turf for fillies and mares at Santa Anita. Trainer Neil Drysdale said Sunday that the Grade 1 Jenny Wiley Stakes, a $350,000 race for fillies and mares at 1 1/16 miles on July 11 at Keeneland, is part of Toinette’s short-term plans.

Indian Peak, winner of the $151,000 Snow Chief Stakes on turf for California-bred 3-year-olds on Saturday at Santa Anita, will be part of trainer Quinn Howey’s 10-horse stable at Del Mar this summer.

Indian Peak will be pointed to a stakes against open company at 1 1/16 miles in early August. Howey said the $100,000 Shared Belief Stakes on dirt on Aug. 1 or the Grade 3 La Jolla Handicap on turf on Aug. 9 are under consideration.

Collusion Illusion’s brilliant rally that led to a win in Saturday’s Grade 3 Lazaro Barrera Stakes at Santa Anita is likely to keep the 3-year-old in one-turn races this summer.

Collusion Illusion caught pacesetter Ragtime Blues in the stretch of the $100,000 Barrera Stakes at seven furlongs before drawing away by 3 1/4 lengths at 2-5. The win has led trainer Mark Glatt to strongly consider the Grade 1 H. Allen Jerkens Stakes, a $300,000 race at seven furlongs for 3-year-olds, on Aug. 1 at Saratoga.

“It makes some sense,” Glatt said. “It’s Grade 1.”

ELMONT, N.Y. – Last year, Oleksandra won races at Belmont, Saratoga, and Keeneland. Her connections are hoping that pattern repeats itself in 2020.

Oleksandra completed the first step in that process when she rallied from last under Joel Rosario to nail Kanthaka on the wire and win Saturday’s Grade 1, $250,000 Japuir Stakes. Her final time of 1:06.80 was just .06 of a second off the course record set by Tombelaine in 2018.

ELMONT, N.Y. – Twenty-four hours after his dominant victory in the Grade 1 Woody Stephens Stakes at Belmont Park, No Parole was back in his stall at Churchill Downs.

But the 3-year-old son of Violence will likely be headed back to New York for his next start, most likely in the Grade 1 H. Allen Jerkens on Aug. 1 at Saratoga.

“That’s a logical spot for us, we’ll see how he trains and what the ownership has to say about it,” said trainer Tom Amoss, who trains No Parole for Maggi Moss and Greg Tramontin.

ELMONT, N.Y. – Trainer Bob Baffert had intended for Gamine to sit off another horse in Saturday’s Grade 1 Acorn Stakes at Belmont Park.

Then she drew the rail.

So, Baffert told jockey John Velazquez to let Gamine leave the gate running, and once he did that, Gamine never stopped, rolling to a smashing 18 3/4-length victory over Pleasant Orb in the $300,000 Acorn.

ELMONT, N.Y. – Though he basked in the quietude of a spectator-less Belmont Park on Saturday, trainer Barclay Tagg knows the noise level will be ratcheted up a few notches as the summer rolls on.

“You gotta get used to it, it’s the job,” Tagg said Sunday morning.

ELMONT, N.Y. – Sonneman, winner of his last two starts, will make his stakes debut in Thursday’s $80,000 Easy Goer Stakes for 3-year-olds at 1 1/16 miles.

Sonneman, a son of Curlin, was recently transferred to Steve Asmussen from Mark Hennig by the Courtlandt Farm of Don and Donna Adam. Sonneman drew post 4 and will be ridden by Jose Ortiz.

Casino Grande, winner of his first two starts for Christophe Clement, drew post 3 for the Easy Goer. Irad Ortiz Jr. rides.

Celtic Striker, Informative, Prodigious Bay, and Toy complete the Easy Goer field.

ELMONT, N.Y. – Trainer Chad Brown wanted to see how Newspaperofrecord came out of her dominant four-length victory in the Grade 3 Intercontinental Stakes here June 6 before committing her to the Grade 1 Just a Game next Saturday.

But after watching her breeze a half-mile in 50.68 seconds Friday morning over the Belmont main track, Brown said Newspaperofrecord will run in the Just a Game.

“We’re going to go ahead and wheel her back in the Just a Game,” Brown said. “Just wanted to see how she was moving, her energy level. She looks good. Wish I had a little more time.”

ELMONT, N.Y. – Code of Honor, half-length winner of the Grade 3 Westchester Stakes on June 6, returned to the work tab Friday morning, breezing a half-mile in 50.31 seconds, with a final quarter of 24.07, according to Daily Racing Form clocker Mike Welsch. Code of Honor galloped out five furlongs in 1:02.35 and six furlongs in 1:14.96.

Trainer Shug McGaughey said he is still taking a wait-and-see approach as to Code of Honor’s next start. The potential targets are the Grade 1 Metropolitan Handicap on July 4 at Belmont or the Grade 1 Whitney Stakes on Aug. 1 at Saratoga.
