Calder Barn Notes (May 27, 2012)

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (May 27, 2012) – Following a seven-furlong work in 1: 28.2 over a fast track at Calder Casino & Race Course Sunday morning, trainer Manny Azpurua confirmed that Korina Stable’s Ravelo’s Boy, last seen finishing fifth in the Grade 2 Tampa Bay Derby, will make his next start in the Grade 1 Belmont Stakes.

“He worked just the way I wanted him to,” Azpurua said. “He had a fast work a couple of days ago, so I wanted him to do things easy today. I was so pleased with the way he handled himself and the distance.
