Palace Malice, who broke his maiden impressively at Saratoga last summer before going to the sidelines with sore shins, will make his much-anticipated return on Saturday in the first race at Gulfstream Park, a seven-furlong allowance optional claiming event.
Trained by Todd Pletcher and owned by Dogwood Stable, the son of Curlin defeated a number of good horses in his maiden victory, including Breeders' Cup Juvenile Sprint winner Hightail; Nick Zito's promising allowance winner Flying Bird; recent Gulfstream allowance runner-up Gunderman; and Bill Mott's good colt Gunderman.
Palace Malice will be ridden on Saturday by Javier Castellano, who was aboard the colt at Saratoga.
Other prominent entrants include City of Weston, who was most recently beaten a half-length in the Spectacular Bid Stakes; 7 1/4-length maiden winner Jay Eye See; and allowance optional claiming race runner-up Majestic Hussar.
