Nysos suffered his first career loss off a lengthy layoff in the Churchill Downs (G1) last time out, but in the circumstances, he lost no luster. The Bob Baffert celebrity reiterated that point by running away with Saturday’s $98,000 Triple Bend (G3) back at his home base of Santa Anita. Initially expected to ship to Saratoga for the Metropolitan H. (G1) on Belmont Day, Nysos instead landed in this relatively easier spot with a view to the future.

Although winless since his memorable triumph in the 2024 Kentucky Derby (G1) in a three-way photo, Mystik Dan returns to Churchill Downs on Saturday for the $275,000 Blame (G3) with some positive momentum. Regrouping after back-to-back poor efforts in the Malibu (G1) and Pegasus World Cup (G1) over the winter, Mystik Dan enters the nine-furlong Blame off a much improved effort in the Lake Ouachita S. at Oaklawn Park, which was run on the same day as the Kentucky Derby.

Two Sharp showed literally no rust returning from a six-month layoff when blitzing an accomplished group of older filly and mare sprinters in the $250,000 Winning Colors (G3) at Churchill Downs. Under Junior Alvarado, Two Sharp made the led soon after the start, opened up a big advantage on the turn while setting a blistering pace of :21.14 and :43.99, and had more than enough in reserve to finish 3 1/2 lengths clear at the finish. She covered six furlongs in 1:08.75 over a fast track.

2 weeks ago | brisnet.com | Vance Hanson

The adjective in his name fits Formidable Man, who figures to be a shorter price than usual in search of his third Grade 1 triumph Monday in the $300,000 Shoemaker Mile (G1) at Santa Anita. Although he doesn't tend to win by much, win he does. The City of Light colt has landed several of the circuit's top-rated grass races since the fall, beginning with the Del Mar Derby (G2) and extending through the Hollywood Derby (G1) and Frank E.

Securing an uncontested lead for Charlene’s Dream, he lulled the rest to sleep through leisurely fractions and masterminded the $18.20 upset at Pimlico.
