6th-SAR, 100K, Msw, 2yo, 5 1/2fT, 4:02 p.m.
Bloodstock agent Kerri Radcliffe signed the ticket on SCHWARZENEGGER (Not This Time), a $950,000 Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Sale grad one year ago who now races for a partnership which includes David Fennelly, Brook Smith, Mrs. John Magnier and Resolution Road Stables. It was the colt's second time at auction having first sold for $410,000 as a weanling at KEENOV in 2023 to Violet Stables. His winning Lemon Drop Kid first dam just passed through the ring herself, realizing $350,000 from Gainesway at KEENOV in 2024. She's already produced one winner from her first foal to race with Schwarzenegger being her second to the track. Trainer Wesley Ward showed confidence in cross-entering Schwarzenegger in the Skidmore Stakes Saturday but opted for this spot as long as the race stays on the grass and has tabbed Hall of Famer John Velazquez to ride.
