Heart to Heart continues to train well at Saratoga and remains on target for the Grade 1 Fourstardave on Saturday, trainer Brian Lynch said Monday.
Earlier in the morning, Heart to Heart put in his second and final work before the one-mile race over the inner turf, going four furlongs in 50.44 seconds on the Oklahoma turf track.
"He's a model of consistency," Lynch said. "He breezed today. Everything shows me that he's on schedule."
An 11-time graded stakes winner, Heart to Heart is coming off a second-place finish to Hunt by a neck in the Grade 1 Shoemaker Mile on May 28 at Santa Anita. The 6-year-old son of English Channel will try again to notch his third Grade 1 win of the year, adding to victories in the Gulfstream Park Turf on February 10 and the Maker's 46 Mile on April 13 at Keeneland. Heart to Heart has recorded triple digit Beyers in each of his last seven races at one mile.
