Lookin at Lucky highlights Rebel Stakes at Oaklawn
Horseracing Betting Lines
03/11/2010 -
Hot Springs, AR (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Champion colt Lookin at Lucky tops a field
of seven three-year-olds in Saturday's $300,000 Rebel Stakes at Oaklawn Park.
The 2009 champion two-year-old will be making his first start of the year in
the 1 1/16-mile race.
The Rebel is the final local prep race before the $1 million Arkansas Derby,
set for Saturday, April 10.
Trained by Bob Baffert, Lookin at Lucky will be ridden by Garrett Gomez and
leave from the two post. The Rebel will be the colt's first start outside of
California.
"We have a lot of questions that have to be answered," Baffert said, "wearing
blinkers for the first time in a race and running on dirt for the first time.
The closer you get to the Kentucky Derby (May 1), the better off you are
knowing the answers."
Lookin at Lucky, owned by Karl Watson, Mike Pegram and Paul Weltman, was
second to Vale of York in the Breeders'Cup Juvenile last November, but came
back to win the CashCall Futurity the following month at Hollywood Park.
"It always looks like he's stretched to win," Gomez said following the
CashCall win, "but that's not the case. He's going to learn more as he goes
along because he's got a super mind to him. We've got to get him to where he
puts his competition away and sprints to the wire. He's full of talent and I'm
getting even more excited about him."
The colt has won five of six starts for more than $1.2 million.
Southwest Stakes winner Conveyance, also trained by Baffert, will make his
next start in the $800,000 Sunland Derby on Sunday, March 28.
Southwest runner-up Dublin, trained by D. Wayne Lukas, will start from the far
outside post with Corey Nakatani riding. The chestnut colt will be making his
second start of 2010 for owners Robert Baker and William Mack.
Dublin came from the back of the field in the Southwest to lose by just three-
quarters of a length. Nakatani will be aboard the colt for the first time in
the race.
In 2009 Dublin won the Hopeful at Saratoga, but then finished fifth in the
Chamgagne and seventh in the Iroquois. With two wins in six career starts he
has earnings of $278,623.
Taking another shot at Lookin at Lucky is Noble's Promise, trained by Ken
McPeek. Noble's Promise will break from post six with Robby Albarado riding.
Owned by Chasing Dreams Racing, the colt was third in the Breeders' Cup
Juvenile and second in the CashCall Futurity. He won the Fitz Dixon Stakes at
Presque Isle Downs and Keeneland's Breeders' Futurity Stakes.
Noble's Promise career record shows three wins from six starts and earnings of
$733,500.
Here is the complete field for the Rebel in post position order: Cardiff
Giant, Christian Santiago Reyes; Lookin at Lucky, Garrett Gomez; Royal
Express, Perry Compton; Uh Oh Bango, Glenn Corbett; Pleasant Storm, Jon Court;
Noble's Promise, Robby Albarado and Dublin, Corey Nakatani.
Post-time for the 50th running of the Rebel is scheduled for 6:47 p.m. (et).
