The gray colt, a son of Arindel’s champion Wait a While (Maria’s Mon), has been working strongly at Palm Meadows for this return. “We had a shin issue that he ended up getting quite a bit of time off for,” explained trainer Todd Pletcher. "They did a really good job at the farm with him and he’s come back and he’s training well.” Pletcher had the choice of this race or a one-mile event three races later. “If there was one at seven-eighths, I probably would have went that way, but I figured we'd just ease him back into it,” Pletcher said. “He’s obviously a very talented horse.
