Tappan Street, Disco Time Work for Pegasus at Payson Park

Tappan Street Ryan Thompson

Grade I winner Tappan Street (Into Mischief) worked Saturday morning at Gulfstream Park in his continued preparation for the Pegasus World Cup Invitational.

Working four furlongs alone at Payson Park, the Brad Cox trainee was clocked in :49.60 (15/48) in his first move since his successful return to the races Dec. 19 against allowance optional claiming company at Gulfstream Park.

“It was a really good move, by himself, :49.2 and 1:02.2,” said Cox. “I thought the track was much deeper after the break up there [at Payson Park].”

Disco Time (Not This Time), the unbeaten winner of the GIII Lecomte Stakes, worked five furlongs the day prior Jan. 2 in 1:01 flat, the fastest of five others at that distance.

“Disco Time went [Friday], lights out,” Cox said. “He's really on it. Super pleased with how he's breezed the last few weeks and how he physically looks.”

Both runners are currently being pointed toward the Pegasus World Cup Invitational Saturday, Jan. 24.
