Destin set the track record at the Tampa Bay Derby. He finished 6th in the Kentucky Derby but will be fresh here after bypassing the Preakness Stakes.
"It's a logical move for us if you're not set on the Preakness," said Todd Pletcher, Destin[ trainer. "We get to spend five weeks here preparing for it. It makes sense.
"Any time you're running at your home track, it's somewhat of an advantage. We get five weeks, settle in. The five weeks from the Derby -- or the Oaks in the case of Rags to Riches (another of his horses) -- is good timing. You get a good foundation in the preps and then the Derby or the Oaks, a real good conditioning foundation you need to run a mile and a half."
Destin, Pletcher said, "has done well, put on a few pounds since the Derby."
