Songbird Perfect after Oaks Romp

Songbird | Benoit

Songbird (Medaglia d'Oro) was declared in fine shape a day after producing yet another seemingly effortless victory in Saturday's GI Santa Anita Oaks.

“Songbird came out of the race in perfect order,” trainer Jerry Hollendorfer said Sunday. “She seems very good this morning.”

As for plans leading up to the May 6 GI Kentucky Oaks, Hollendorfer added, “We have to wait to make shipping plans because there will be a lot of horses going back and forth at that time [for the Kentucky Derby May 7 and the Oaks]. We'll try and make the most advantageous arrangements. Songbird will stay here and likely have her last work at Santa Anita before the Oaks and then ship.”
