ROSARIO SET TO RIDE AT GULFSTREAM OPENING DAY
Jockey Joel Rosario, the leading rider in California, will be in attendance opening day at Gulfstream Park when he makes the cross-country trip to ride Wesley Wards stakes-winning filly Final Mesa in the $100,000 Old Hat Stakes.
A bay filly by Sky Mesa, Final Mesa broke her maiden April 16 at Keeneland before winning the May 15 Polly Drummond Stakes at Delaware Park and the June 26 My Dear Stakes at Woodbine. The filly hasnt raced since finishing sixth Aug. 6 under Rosario in the Sorrento Stakes (G3) at Del Mar.
Shes been doing well, said Ward, owner and trainer of the New York-bred filly. She just had some problems (in the Sorrento). I gave her a little time off and now shes ready to go.
Others expected in the Jan. 5 opener include Sabine Stables Because I Like It and the undefeated Roxy Gap.
