Algorithms Galloping at Belmont Park
Starlight Racing's Algorithms, winner of the Jan. 29 Holy Bull Stakes (gr. III) in his most recent start, has returned from a layup and is galloping daily at Belmont Park under the supervision of trainer Todd Pletcher, Starlight principal Jack Wolf said Sept. 25.
Undefeated in three starts including his five-length win in the Holy Bull at Gulfstream Park, the 3-year-old son of Bernardini was considered a top Triple Crown prospect of 2012 before he fractured a splint bone in his right front leg. He was scratched from the Feb. 26 Fasig-Tipton Fountain of Youth Stakes (gr. II) the morning of the race and underwent surgery at Ocala Equine Hospital in late February after the injury was discovered.
The colt returned to Belmont Sept. 11, according to Wolf.
