He was bred by Brent and Crystal Fernung with Mike Sebastian Jr. and Mike Sebastian and will be ridden Thursday by Luis Saez. Untitled is the 6-5 morning line favorite and will break from post two. The second choice in the program at 4-1 is No Getting Over Me, who is trained by Saffie Joseph Jr. for Abdullah Saeed Almaddah. No Getting Over Me also drops into Thursday’s race from a Grade 3 event having finished fifth most recently in the mile-and- one-sixteenth Sam F.

The grey or roan 3-year-old colt also won his first career race against maiden special weight competition when he dominated a six furlong test on Nov. 29 at Tampa Bay, winning by nine-and- three-quarters lengths. Following that, he finished second to Zino Boyz after a slow start in the $50,000 Inaurgural Stakes at Tampa Bay going six furlongs on Dec. 7 and third behind winner Liam’s Lucky Charm in the $125,000 Pasco Stakes at seven furlongs at Tampa Bay on Jan. 18.

No Getting Over Me passed through the sales ring at the 2019 Ocala Breeders’ Sales June Sale where Michael Vitello took him for $17,000 from the Scanlon Training and Sales consignment. Edgard Zayas has the mount on No Getting Over Me, who has drawn the inside post one. Trainer Todd Pletcher will saddle Roman Empire for Thursday’s race and the sophomore son of Empire Maker will break from post three.

Cristian Torres will ride First and Three and they have post four. He is out of Superior Sarah, by Werblin and was bred by Three Gin Stable. Winking At Thedude is out of Wink At the Boys, by Graeme Hall and won an off the turf, $25,000 non-winners of three claim- ing race at one mile in his last start.
