Flightline Gallops, Edgeway Drills Half-Mile for Sadler

Hronis Racing, Siena Farm, Summer Wind Equine, West Point Thoroughbreds and Woodford Racing’s undefeated Flightline galloped a mile and a quarter under Juan Leyva shortly after the main track opened for training Tuesday morning.

Trained by John Sadler, Flightline arrived at Keeneland Sunday afternoon and Monday morning jogged once around the track under Leyva. Flightline is scheduled to have his final work on Saturday, depending on weather, before an anticipated run in the $6 million Breeders’ Cup Classic (G1) on Nov. 5.

Following the first track renovation break at 7:30, Leyva was back on the track with Hronis Racing’s Edgeway, who worked a half-mile in :46 in advance of an expected start in the $1 million Breeders’ Cup Filly and Mare Sprint (G1) to be run Nov. 5.

Edgeway, who was second to Ce Ce in that race last year at Del Mar, produced fractions of :23.40, :34.20, :46 and out five-eighths in :58.60. The half-mile time was the best of 18 at the distance.

“She went real nice this morning and got over the track well,” Leyva said. “The track was nice and tight. She will probably work again Monday.”

Sadler has one other possible Breeders’ Cup runner here for Hronis Racing: two-time graded stakes winner Bran (FR), who is being pointed to the $1 million Turf Sprint (G1). Leyva said Bran would most likely work Friday.
