Plum Pretty may not run in the Oaks either.

DRF|Plum Pretty stands out in Hollywood Oaks - if she runs

Quote:
By Wednesday, Plum Pretty had recovered from the illness and was entered for the Hollywood Oaks. On Thursday, trainer Bob Baffert cautioned that she may not start.

Baffert said he is taking a cautious approach to Plum Pretty’s participation in the Hollywood Oaks and will assess her condition until raceday.

“I entered her, but I don’t know if I will run her,” Baffert said. “I wanted to give myself the option. I worked her the other day, and the next day she was kind of quiet. I took the blood and it was normal. I just didn’t feel comfortable putting her on the plane.

“[Tuesday], she was full of herself. I’ll watch her until Saturday. We’ll make the call that day.”
