Both Grade 2 Gazelle winner My Miss Sophia and runner-up Got Lucky will be on a plane bound for Louisville, Ky. on Monday to prepare for their next engagement in the Grade 1 Kentucky Oaks on May 2 at Churchill Downs, trainer Todd Pletcher said Sunday morning.
The trainer will have three starters in the race - which he won last year with Princess of Sylmar - including undefeated In Tune, winner of the Grade 2 Gulfstream Oaks on March 29.
Pletcher added that Harpoon, who finished ninth in the Grade 1 TwinSpires.com Wood Memorial, also emerged from his effort in good order.
"We'll probably freshen him up and run him in [an entry-level allowance]," he said.
