Rags to Riches next race

[Storm Cadet]

Who will take on Rags to Riches?

Pletcher is pointing Belmont Stakes winner Rags to Riches to the $300,000 Coaching Club American Oaks on July 21. The big question is, Who will run against her?

Nominations for the Grade 1 race were to close on Saturday. As of Friday there were 13 nominations, according to stakes coordinator Andrew Byrnes, four of which are trained by Pletcher. In addition to Rags to Riches, Pletcher nominated Octave, Mini Sermon, and Prom Party. Of the other nine nominees, only Folk is considered definite.

Others nominated include Cash's Girl and Lear's Princess from Kiaran McLaughlin, as well as Winning Point, My Kitty, Greenstreet, Olivine, and Autobahn Girl.

"There'll be four in there," Pletcher said. "They might all be ours. I'll run four if I have to."

Yeah, racing is good nowadays!
