Derby Work: Raise Cain Completes ‘Nice And Easy’ Five Furlongs At Keeneland

Andrew and Rania Warren's Raise Cain began his major preparation for an expected run in the Kentucky Derby (G1) by working five furlongs in 1:03.40 Thursday morning at Keeneland over a fast track.

With regular work rider Isael Garcia aboard for trainer Ben Colebrook, Raise Cain produced fractions of :13.60, :26.80, :38.60, :51.40, 1:03.40 and galloped out six furlongs in 1:15.80. (Click here for a video of the work.)

“Nice and easy … finished well and galloped out well. Just what you're looking for,” Colebrook said. “He started out slow and then finished well.”

A Keeneland sales graduate who won the Gotham (G3) at Aqueduct prior to finishing fifth in Keeneland's Toyota Blue Grass (G1), Raise Cain will be ridden in the Kentucky Derby by Javier Castellano.

Colebrook, who will be saddling his first Kentucky Derby starter, plans to work Raise Cain next Thursday or Friday depending on weather.

Raise Cain will complete the Keeneland segment of his Kentucky Derby preparation Monday, May 1. He will train here in the morning before vanning to Churchill Downs.
