Tap the Gavel Workout Report

Tap the Gavel worked this morning over the Belmont Park training track with stablemate Wicked Fast. The pair of 2-year-olds completed the five-furlong work in 1:03.89, faster than only one of the 23 works at the distance.

Speaking with Bill Mott this morning, he said it would be nice to have Tap the Gavel in Saratoga to work him on the turf. He said his rolling motion and higher knee action indicates he would take to the grass well. Thus, Tap the Gavel will leave Belmont Park and ship to Saratoga tomorrow morning.
