Derby-bound White Abarrio has impressive work between Gulfstream races
Mike Welsch | Apr 30, 2022 After having his final Kentucky Derby work postponed this morning due to wet track conditions, White Abarrio finally got to strut his stuff shortly after 6 p.m. and between the final two races on Saturday’s Gulfstream Park program, working four furlongs in 48.11 followed by a very strong and impressive gallop out. White Abarrio went easily to the wire, was urged on to complete five-eighths into the turn in 1:00.12 then continued full of run, completing six panels in 1:11.94 and seven furlongs in 1:24.81 before pulling up after a mile in 1:41.64. “It was a super work,“ trainer Saffie Joseph Jr. said. “I don’t know if he went out that good because it’s a faster track since it’s a race day, but he went phenomenal. We’re thankful for Gulfstream for having the track in such good shape and for allowing us to work. We’re happy where we’re at. Fingers crossed now.” White Abarrio will van to Churchill Downs on Sunday.
