Hero Status Workout Report

Hero Status had his final breeze this morning at Santa Anita Park in preparation for an allowance race next Sunday. The 3-year-old colt covered five furlongs in 1:01.20 with Hall of Fame rider Mike Smith aboard.

“It looked like he was just galloping out there. I had him in 11.40 for the final 1/8th of a mile,” said trainer Mark Glatt.

As previously mentioned, Hero Status wore a very small blinker (cheater blinker) for the first time and responded well. Both Smith and Glatt were thoroughly pleased with the work. Based on today’s breeze, Hero Status will add blinkers in Sunday’s race. Entries will be taken on Thursday, October 6th.
