Percy's Bar worked at Keeneland on Monday ahead of a possible start in the June 13 Monomoy Girl Overnight Stakes at Churchill Downs.

The Upstart filly, seventh in the Grade 1 Kentucky Oaks in her most recent start, breezed five furlongs in 1:01.0, fastest of five at the distance.

Trainer Ben Colebook said the black-type Monomoy Girl "most likely" will be her next start.

In her six starts before the Kentucky Oaks, Percy's Barn never finished out of the money. She won the Ashland (G1) in April and was third in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies last year.
