Main Sequence Readies For Mac Diarmida

Champion Turf and Older Horse Main Sequence (Aldebaran) breezed four furlongs in :50 at Palm Meadows Training Center Monday in preparation for his seasonal debut in Gulfstream’s GII Mac Diarmida S. Saturday. He worked in company with Ring Weekend (Tapit), who is slated to run in Saturday’s GII Canadian Turf S. “He had a good work last week and we didn’t want to overdo it today, six days before the race,” trainer Graham Motion said. “I actually thought of working them on their own today, but I just thought they could work together. They’re both good work horses. It’s very exciting. After winning two Eclipse Awards, you just want everything to go well. It’s very exciting getting to this point. A lot of time goes into getting him here.”
