American promise that the Virginia Derby wins | Coady Media
In his penultimate work for the Gi Kentucky Derby, American promise (Justify) quickly went with the design for coach D. Wayne Lukas and will send to Kentucky on Sunday.
The breeze on Friday morning in the Oaklawn Park was a seven Furlong trip from the goal in 1: 25.20 under Nik Juarez, which will also have the call in the large race shortly after the renovation break.
According to Oaklawn's leading Clocker Jim Hamilton, American Promise, was through: 22 for the opening district ,: 33.60 for three Furlongs, half in: 45.80, five Furlongs in: 57.80 and six in society with seven racial maid-bon-temps (Bravazo). This colleague fell back in the curve and his five Furlongs, which were attributed to: 59.60.
Despite the appearance, Lukas said that the training developed as planned because he wanted the stallion foal early on.
“I try to concentrate him on getting into his races faster, because with a 20 horses [Kentucky Derby] Field, there is always a problem, “said Lukas.” Sit in a place you can [avoid trouble]. I train him a little differently. “
“He has half a mile away from the goal: 45 seconds. He doesn't have to do that, but at least he now has it in mind. The other horse has worked with him to give him a little interest.”
Apart from swallowing, the son of the Triple Crown winner will have his last Kentucky Derby training in Churchill Downs on April 26th. After two weeks before the race, Lukas would not act with someone.
“I really have the feeling that he can get around. He improves every day. He is still a 2-year-old [American Promise’s actual birthday is May 1] And still grow within this framework. The last two weeks have been the best two weeks he had here. “
