Continued from COVER mandatory payout of the Rain- bow 6 carryover pool will also be held. The Joe Orseno-trained Hope in Him, the 8-5 favorite, is scheduled to meet eight other juveniles in the $100,000 Dr. Fager, a six-furlong sprint that will co-headline Saturday’s pro- gram with the $100,000 Desert Vixen, a six-furlong dash for 2- year-old fillies. “The owner, Mike Hall, and the fellow who picks out our horses, Tom McGreevy, did all the work [in Ocala]. When I got there, they said, ‘Meet us at the Joe Orseno/BILL DENVER EQUIPHOTO barn. We want you to take a look at this colt. We like him and want to know what you think,’” Orseno said. “I went over there, and I just fell in love with him.” Bred in Florida by Michael Frank, Hope in Him made an aus- picious debut in a four-and-a-half-furlong maiden special weight race at Gulfstream June 4, breaking sharply from the gate to set the pace before drawing away to a five-length triumph. “He lived up to our expectations. He really did. I thought he was a nice horse when we bought him,” Orseno said. “We took him down here and he trained forwardly with everything he did. He’s a natural out of the gate.” Samy Camacho has been named to ride Hope in Him from post seven, replacing the recuperating Edwin Gonzalez. Hope in Him’s victory became even more impressive when run- ner-up Lightening Larry came back to score a solid maiden special weight win June 18. Lea Farms LLC’s Lightening Larry is also slated to take on Hope in Him again in the Dr. Fager. The son of Uncaptured chased Hope in Him in his debut, fin- ishing two-and-a-quarter lengths clear of the third-place finisher. Two weeks later, the Jeff Engler-trained Florida-bred graduated by two lengths, drawing clear after pressing the early pace in the five-furlong sprint. “We knew we had a nice horse. I was pleased with his first start. Obviously, the other first-time starter left there running and never stopped,” Engler said. “I thought Larry ran on well and got a lot of education from that race. It showed in his second race, because he ran much better and finished better.” Engler said he expects Lightening Larry, 6-1, to appreciate the six furlongs of the Dr. Fager. “I think the added-distance in the stake will help us against Hope in Him. We’ll just have to see, but I know he’s doing really well,” Engler said. Lightening Larry is out of Moon and Sun, by Malibu Moon and was bred by Michelle Redding. Romero Maragh has the return mount aboard Lightening Larry, who will break from post six. Stonehedge LLC’s Gil and Marilyn Campbell, who have won 15 Florida Sire Stakes races, will be represented by homebreds Dean Delivers and Cajun’s Magic Saturday. Dean Delivers won his debut by seven-and-a-half-lengths June 26, kicking away to an impressive score after pressing the early pace in a five-furlong maiden special weight race at Gulfstream.

We were prob- ably pretty conservative bringing them up to their races. They didn’t have a lot of fast works.” Cajun’s Magic, who finished a close second in his May 29 debut, graduated by four-and-three-quarters lengths July 3 at Gulfstream. Dean Delivers and Cajun Magic are both by Cajun Breeze, who stands at Stonehenge Farm South. Dean Delivers is out of Slick and True, by Yes It’s True, while Cajun Magic is out of Mollie’s Magic, by Factum. Both were bred in Florida by Yates. Miguel Vasquez has the call on Dean Delivers, who is 4-1 in the morning line; while Jesus Rios has the return mount on 5-1 program choice Cajun’s Magic.

He would, however, go on to a successful career that including winning the 1988 Jaipur (G3) at while trained by Flint “Scotty” Schulhofer. A year later, owner Dolly Green and trainer Melvin Stute won the Grade 3 Sorrento Stakes on Aug. 18 and the Grade 2 Del Mar Futurity on Aug. 31, both at Del Mar, with Florida-bred Brave Raj. In search of more riches, they shipped the son of Rajab east to Calder for the $75,000 FSS Susan’s Girl on Sept. 21 which she won by four-and-a-half lengths with Patrick Valenzuela aboard. The same team won $400,000 FSS My Dear Girl Stakes on Oct. 12 before returning to Southern California to win the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies (G1) at Santa Anita on Nov. 1 and be honored with an Eclipse Award as the 1985 Champion 2-Year-Old Filly that year. A race earlier, Florida-bred Smile, who swept the FSS Dr. Fager, FSS Affirmed and FSS In Reality in 1984 for owner-breeder Frances A. Genter, became the third Florida-bred to win the Breeders’ Cup Sprint (G1) following Eillo in 1984 and Precisionist in 1985. In 1987, FSS My Dear Girl-winner Balquiria would be unplaced in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies as were FSS grads Into Bucks and Seaquay in the 1988 Juvenile and Juvenile Fillies respectively.

She would retire as a Grade 1 winner of the Gazelle Stakes at Aqueduct with earnings of more than $1.9 million. Brei would return to Churchill Downs the following year for the Breeders’ Cup with two FSS stars in Fort Loudon and Awesome Belle. Fort Loudon had swept the three male divisions of the FSS in 2011 before finishing seventh in the Grey Goose Juvenile won by Hansen; and FSS My Dear Girl-winner Awesome Belle was un- placed in the Grey Goose Juvenile Fillies won by My Miss Aurelia.

Vanderbilt BY RYAN MARTIN, NYRA PRESS OFFICE ______SARATOGA, NY—Defending champion sprinter Whitmore has shown no signs of slowing down in his 8-year-old campaign. He will again look to put his ability on , facing some of the top sprinters in the country in Saturday’s 37th running of the $350,000 Alfred G. Vanderbilt (Grade 1) at Saratoga Race Course. The prestigious six-furlong sprint for 3-year-olds and older pays homage to the influential owner, breeder and racetrack operator who made a major impact on the North American thoroughbred industry in the 20th century. Whitmore, co-owned by trainer Ron Moquett with Robert V. LaPenta and Head of Plains Partners, arrives at the Vanderbilt with $4,434,350 in the bank, and a career record of 15 wins, 13 seconds and four thirds from 41, including seven graded stakes victories at four dif- ferent racetracks. The gelded son of Pleasantly Perfect capped his award-winning 2020 campaign with a three-and-a-quarter-length vic- tory in the Grade 1 Breeders’ Cup Sprint at Keeneland in November. Whitmore has not found the winner’s circle in 2021 but has come close in all three starts. After a game second by a neck to Florida- bred C Z Rocket in the Hot Springs on March 13 at Oaklawn Park, Florida-bred Firenze Fire/JOE LABOZZETTA PHOTO he returned to run second to his rival once more in the Grade 3 Count George in March 2020 at Laurel Park and the Grade 3 Gallant Bob Fleet Sprint on April 10 at the Arkansas oval.
