Maybellene turns in half-mile work for Kentucky Oaks

Maybellene is one of two Bob Baffert trainees pointing for the Kentucky Oaks (Sunland Park/Coady Photography) Sunland Oaks winner and Kentucky Oaks (G1) candidate Maybellene (Lookin at Lucky) worked a half-mile in company in :48 2/5 over a fast Churchill Downs track after the Tuesday morning renovation break. With Chris Landeros aboard, Maybellene worked with Holiday Camp (Street Boss) and posted fractions of :12 3/5, :24 2/5, :36 4/5 and galloped out five furlongs in 1:01 4/5. Trainer Bob Baffert's other Kentucky Oaks prospect, Santa Anita Oaks (G1) runner-up Luminance (Tale of the Cat), galloped a mile and a half under Jorge Alvarez before the renovation break.

Multiple graded stakes winner Condo Commando got her first feel of the Churchill Downs racing surface Tuesday morning, jogging after the renovation break under trainer Rudy Rodriguez.

"We got here a little after 5:30 last night and she shipped well," Rodriquez said. "I just wanted to show her the track a little bit today. I will let her tell me when she wants to work."

Joel Rosario has the mount on the filly, who has won five of six starts including the Gazelle (G2) at Aqueduct last time.
