Baltas Prepares Ginobili, Idol For Breeders’ Cup Starts

Ginobili displayed his readiness for the Nov. 6 Breeders' Cup Sprint at Del Mar Thoroughbred Club in Del Mar, Calif., working five furlongs Saturday at San Luis Rey Downs in Bonsall, Calif., in a blazing :57.20 for trainer Richard Baltas.

It was three ticks faster than the next recorded time of :59.80 by two Baltas trainees, Barbwire and No Hang Charlie.

Ginobili, a four-year-old Munnings gelding, upset Dirt Mile candidate C Z Rocket in the Grade 2 Pat O'Brien at Del Mar on Aug. 28, and has been firing bullets at San Luis Rey ever since.

Saturday at Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, Calif., Baltas sent Santa Anita Handicap winner Idol four furlongs in :47.80 for the Breeders' Cup Classic.
