Circular Quay runs the Risen Star Stakes at Fair Grounds Print E-mail
Written by Gohorsepower.com   
Wednesday, 07 February 2007
A field of thirteen horses will race in the main event at this weekend's Louisiana Derby Preview Day, including Circular Quay. John Velazquez will be in the irons.

Assistant Michael McCarthy will hand Circular Quay back over to Trainer Todd Pletcher this weekend. Pletcher will be returning to the tracks after serving a suspension for a banned performance enhancer found in one of his horses two years ago.

Circular Quay was an Eclipse Award finalist for two-year-old, and his 2006 record earned him three wins and two seconds. The last of those seconds was in the Breeders Cup Juvenile where Street Sense won by a record ten lengths.

Doug O'Neill has brought Grade II San Rafael winner Notional, who seems poised to move forward, but is starting out of post 12. The rest of the competition still offers a lot of possibilities.

Spectacular Bid Stakes winner Buffalo Man opted out of the Risen Star after drawing outside post 14, but will stay in Florida for the $100,000 OBS Championship. Edgar Prado will pilot.
