Trainer:Nick Zito Jockey:Jerry Bailey Foaling Date: 3-12-2002 Pedigree: Atticus - Verbasle by Slewpy Dosage Profile: 6-4-20-0-0 Dosage Index/CD: 2.00 0.53 2004 Record: 2 starts 2-0-0 $25,800 Best Beyer Figure: 102 Note: Winner of the Aventura was third in the Holy Bull and then won the Fountain of Youth Stakes. Impressive winner of the Florida Derby at Gulfstream last out and unlikely to have another prep before the Kentucky Derby. Had the lead after a mile in the Kentucky Derby, but faded to 10th at the finish. Most thought he would improve in the Preakness, but he faded to 10th again.
