2015 Belmont Stakes - American Pharoah Wins The Triple Crown
Trojan Nation, whose owners Aaron Sones and wife Julie Gilbert said will start in the Grade 1 Belmont Stakes, will arrive at Belmont either Monday evening or Tuesday, trainer Paddy Gallagher said by phone.
Trojan Nation will breeze one final time at Santa Anita on Saturday morning before shipping to Belmont. The son of 2002 Grade 1 Stephen Foster Handicap winner Street Cry last breezed on Sunday at Santa Anita, when he clocked five furlongs in 1:00.20.
He"s scheduled to work tomorrow and will probably go either five-eighths or three-quarters, somewhere around there, Gallagher said. Once he"s at Belmont, he"ll gallop on the track and see the place.
Trojan Nation"s only previous start in New York resulted in a career-best effort when he finished second in the Grade 1 Wood Memorial at Aqueduct Racetrack despite going off at 81-1.
