Shanghai Bobby, the unbeaten winner of the Breeders' Cup Juvenile (gr. I), breezed five furlongs at Palm Meadows Training Center this morning in preparation for a start in the $400,000 Holy Bull Stakes (gr. III) on January 26th.
Trained by Todd Pletcher, Shanghai Bobby clocked the distance in 1:01.79 seconds, the fourteenth-fastest of the twenty-two morning works at that distance. Overall, it was his third breeze since winning the Breeders' Cup Juvenile, and certainly his sharpest.
Another notable name on the Palm Meadows work tab was Palace Malice, a highly-regarded son of Curlin that recorded the same time for five furlongs as Shanghai Bobby did. Trained by Pletcher, Palace Malice has not run since breaking his maiden in impressive fashion at Saratoga, but is expected to be back to the races before too long.
