Made You Look Headlines With Anticipation

Trainer Todd Pletcher heads to the $200,000 With Anticipation Stakes (gr. IIT) Aug. 31 at Saratoga Race Course with a fresh horse in Made You Look, who is set for his first start since his maiden-breaking win June 18 at Belmont Park.

Eight 2-year-olds were entered to run 1 1/16 miles on the inner turf in the With Anticipation, which goes as race nine on Wednesday's 10-race card, with an approximate post time of 6:17 p.m. EDT.

Pletcher has won the With Anticipation four times, including last year's renewal with Azar, and will likely be favored to add a fifth with Made You Look, a son of More Than Ready   who has not raced in 10 1/2 weeks. The colt posted a top-figure maiden win as the odds-on choice at Belmont going six furlongs in his second start. He was second in his May 27 debut at Belmont to the filly Red Lodge, who recently won the Colleen Stakes on the Monmouth Park turf Aug. 6.

Made You Look was a $360,000 Keeneland September yearling purchase by owners Let's Go Stable and Three Chimneys Farm. Denali Stud consigned the colt, whose second dam is champion Serena's Song.

Made You Look will start from post 2 with Javier Castellano.

Trainer Arnaud Delacour sends out My Bo Chop for his United States debut following his acquisition by Team Valor International. The son of Myboycharlie, just released from quarantine Sunday morning, made three starts in France, winning his second start July 3. He was fourth with a late rally in his stakes debut Aug. 6 at Vichy for owner-breeder-trainer Alain Chopard.

My Bo Chop breaks from post 3 with Joe Bravo.

Trainer Tom Morley enters the final week of the meet with six wins, topped by Haveyougoneaway's double of the Ballerina Stakes (gr. I) and Honorable MissStakes (gr. II), the first graded stakes wins of his career. He shoots for another black-type win with Ardmore Bay, a son of Bluegrass Cat   who followed a front-running debut win July 4 at Belmont with an off-the-pace score in the 5 1/2-furlong Tyro Stakes Aug. 8 at Monmouth.

"He's a New York-bred; there's nothing for New York-breds on the grass at this time of year, and I was surprised he could win like that at Monmouth on a very, very speedy grass course," Morley said. "I was actually kind of using the race to set up this, because I've always wanted to go two turns with him. So for him to kick and win like that going 5 1/2 (furlongs) really encouraged me. He's a smart horse and he'll be even better next year."

Ardmore Bay will depart from post 4 with Manny Franco.

Other entrants include Tell the Truth, who won a second-out maiden event on grass July 20 at Delaware Park going 7 1/2 furlongs. Monsoon K S A exits a second-out maiden win at 7 1/2 furlongs Aug. 6 on the Delaware turf as well; he ships in from Laurel Park.

Gemologister is a maiden making his fourth start at the meet for Jaime Mejia after three turf sprints in July and August.
