American History

American History entered into the Breeders' Futurity (G1) with an 83 Brisnet Speed rating that trailed the top three contenders in the field. He exited as the winner, paying $12.00 and earning 10 Derby points and a 'Win and You're In' berth in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile. His only previous start was a 6 1/2-furlong maiden special weight at Saratoga, which he won by 7 3/4 lengths after closing from just off the pace. In the Futurity he beat the favorite Coach Pope, whose 99 rating was the best in the field. Todd Pletcher trains him and John Velazquez rode. Pletcher has now won four of the last five Futurities. The chestnut is by Florida Derby winner Constitution out of Bloody Point and was bred by Alpha Delta Stables. He races for WinStar Farm, First Go Racing and CHC. Unbeaten in two starts, he has already won around two turns.
