Mind Your Biscuits (Posse), a two-time winner of the G1 Dubai Golden Shaheen and a narrow runner-up in the prestigious GI Runhappy Metropolitan H. June 9, will take another crack at two turns in Saturday evening's GIII Lukas Classic S. at Churchill Downs.
The New York-bred reported home second in a sloppy renewal of the GI Whitney S. going this same 1 1/8-mile distance at Saratoga last time Aug. 4.
“He's kind of like an NFL quarterback who is lazy in practice, but once it's game time, he steps up and shows his real stuff,” trainer Chad Summers said.
Mind Your Biscuits rallied late to hit the board in the last two renewals of the GI Breeders' Cup Sprint.
“My goal all along was to win a Breeders' Cup,” Summers said. “We've gotten close in the past in the Sprint, but with all of the other partners involved in the ownership, it's a lot of pressure to pick the spots. The Classic and Dirt Mile are also possibilities.”
Honorable Duty (Distorted Humor), an easy winner of this race last year, enters off a second-place finish in Churchill's GI Stephen Foster H. June 16.
