Charles Fipke's homebred Seeking the Soul (Perfect Soul {Ire}), runner-up in last weekend's GI Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile, is being aimed for a title defense in the upcoming GI Clark H. at Churchill Downs Nov. 23.
“There's a title out there to defend,” trainer Dallas Stewart said. “He bounced out of the Dirt Mile in great shape and we're definitely going to point towards the Clark. I just wish he would've had his shot to try the Classic. I think he would have been right up there with those horses going 1 1/4 miles.”
A six-time winner, Seeking the Soul captured the GIII Ack Ack S. at Churchill in his previous trip to the post Sept. 29.
“One thing we know for sure is this horse loves it here at Churchill Downs,” Stewart said. “He's run some of his best races over this surface.”
