Honor Code, winner of the Remsen Stakes (gr. II) last year and an early favorite for the Kentucky Derby (gr. I), recorded his first workout in nearly a month on February 12th, breezing three furlongs in :35.66 seconds at Gulfstream Park.
Trained by Shug McGaughey, the son of A.P. Indy missed some training time in January after suffering from hind ankle bruising. This spoiled plans to start Honor Code in the February 22nd Fountain of Youth Stakes (gr. II), but now that the colt is back on the work tab, a race like the March 15th Rebel Stakes (gr. II) at Oaklawn Park could be a logical talent.
Honor Code's workout time was the second-fastest of the morning at that distance, trailing the bullet work by just 0.22 seconds. He was bred by Dell Ridge Farm and is owned by Dell Ridge Farm and Lane's End Racing.
