Baffert Runners Head Busy Monday Work Tab

Several top horses trained by Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert were among 174 workers at Santa Anita Monday morning. Among those working four furlongs for Baffert on the main track were GISWs Adare Manor (Uncle Mo) (:46.40), Arabian Lion (Justify) (:46.80), Faiza (Girvin) (:49.20) and National Treasure (Quality Road) (:48.20).

GI Starlet S. winner Faiza's drill was her first since being scratched from the Torrey Pines S. on Sept. 2 at Del Mar. National Treasure, winner of this season's GI Preakness S., had his second work since finishing fifth in the GI Travers at Saratoga on Aug. 26. Adare Manor has been working weekly following her win in the Aug. 5 GI Clement L. Hirsch at Del Mar. GI Woody Stephens S. scorer Arabian Lion has also been working steadily since a third-place effort in Saratoga's GI H. Allen Jerkens Memorial on Aug. 26.

Working four furlongs on the training track for Baffert was Du Jour (Temple City), who completed the move in :49.20. This was Du Jour's second work since winning the GII Del Mar Mile Sept. 2.
