Destin Works
Posted: Sat Apr 23, 2016 11:43 am
Pletcher made the decision to to train Destin up to the Kentucky Derby despite the fact it will be eight weeks without a race. He had a serious 5/8ths move today in 1:00.32 at the Delray Beach Florida Training Center, Palm Beach Downs. After he put away his workmate, who I believe was the 4YO Savoy Stomp? He continued to gallop out very strong, unofficially 1:11.28, 1:25.83 and a mile in 1:39.94. Pletcher is trying a new approach to the Derby with this one and he's had much success running horses off layoffs in the past...we will see. This one a very good move over this training track. TJ
