Clarence Scharbauer Jr.’s homebred Fiftyshadesofgold exited her impressive eight-length victory in the $113,400 Debutante in good order, according to trainer Bret Calhoun.
“Everything is good today,” Calhoun said. “She’s doing well.”
Calhoun said no plans have been made
for Fiftyshadesofgold’s next start; however, he did say he plans on
keeping her apart from stablemate Bahnah, who won impressively at Churchill Downs in her debut and is being pointed
to the $150,000-added Schuylerville (GIII) at Saratoga on July 19.
“We don’t have any plans for
Fiftyshadesofgold at this point,” Calhoun said. “We’ll try to get a plan
together in the next week or so, but I don’t even know what’s out there
outside of the race at Saratoga, which is where
Bahnah is going. Right now, I don’t think I’d want to run them both
there.”
Calhoun added that Fiftyshadesofgold
likely would remain at Churchill Downs and train up to her next race at
the Louisville track.
