Pletcher Will Have Four in Jockey Club Gold Cup

Hall of Fame trainer Todd Pletcher is going to be a busy man Sept. 3, the final Saturday of the 40-day meet at Saratoga Race Course. He is expected to saddle four horses in the $1.25 million Jockey Club Gold Cup (G1): Dynamic One, owned by Repole Stable, Phipps Stable and St. Elias Stable; Keepmeinmind, owned by Cypress Creek Equine, Arnold Bennewith and Spendthrift Farm; Americanrevolution, owned by China Horse Club and WinStar Farm and Untreated, owned by Team Valor International. Dynamic One, who won the Suburban Stakes (G2) at Belmont Park in his last start, worked Aug. 12 in company with Malathaat, last year's Eclipse Award winner for 3-year-old filly. They had a bullet five-furlong breeze in 1:01.12. Pletcher said it was one of the better works he has seen from Dynamic One. As for his top older horses, Pletcher is still sorting out where Life Is Good, winner of the Whitney Stakes (G1) Aug 6, will go as well as Happy Saver, the Whitney runner-up. The two races he has in mind are the Woodward Stakes (G1) at Belmont at Aqueduct Oct. 1 and the Lukas Classic Stakes (G3) at Churchill Downs on the same day. "Happy Saver will go wherever Life Is Good does not go," Pletcher said.
