Connections Looking at Travers for Majesto

Grupo Seven C Stable's Majesto, a potential Travers entrant, was on the main track Saturday morning to work six furlongs in company with 4-year-old stablemate Juan and Bina.
Under Javier Castellano, who was aboard the Tiznow ridgling for a maiden victory and a runner-up finish in the Grade 1 Florida Derby, Majesto breezed even up with his mate in 1:15.40 seconds.
With Castellano already committed, trainer Gustavo Delgado said it remains to be seen who would ride Majesto - if indeed he is entered.
"It's possible, we will decide today in the night with the owners, because I have no rider today," he said. "Javier worked him today, but he is not riding him in the Travers."
Delgado has been a personal ATM machine for longshot players at the "Graveyard of Favorites" the past two summers. In addition to notching his first Grade 1 win in the United States with 55-1 bomb Paola Queen in the Test two weeks ago, the Venezuelan native also saddled Big Family ($17.20) and Face of Winner ($47.40) here last year.
