Malathaat Works for Shuvee

Malathaat | Sarah Andrew

Shadwell Stable's Malathaat (Curlin), who came up just a head short of Clairiere (Curlin) when second in the June 11 GI Ogden Phipps S. last time out, tuned up for the July 24 GII Shuvee S. with a four-furlong work in :49.22 (44/113) in company Sunday at Saratoga.

Last year's GI Kentucky Oaks winner and champion 3-year-old filly, who has won seven of 10 lifetime starts, will be adding blinkers for her third start of the year next Sunday.

“She seems a little more locked in and a little more concentrated,” said trainer Todd Pletcher. “She's trained great up to this race and we're looking forward to seeing how she adapts to the equipment change.”
