One Go All Go expected to be scratched from Hawthorne Derby
By Marcus Hersh

Trainer Pavel Matejka told me yesterday that ONE GO ALL GO was 50-50 to be scratched from Saturday's Hawthorne Derby in favor of a start in the Bryan Station Stakes at Keeneland, and Hawthorne's stakes coordinator, Debbie Lindsay, just informed that she expects One Go All Go to be scratched from the race.

That's important in a couple ways. One Go All Go, off a win the G2 Commonwealth Derby at the HAW Derby's 9fs grass trip, was a win threat, but beyond that his absence removes one of the race's main pace factors. Now its possible that rail-drawn WIRELESS FUTURE is loose on the lead, and this horse has enough quality to take advantage of a favorable pace setup.
