Shagaf is the winner of this year’s Gotham but finished 5th at the Wood Memorial that followed.
The son of Bernardini, Shagaf won his first three starts.
Trainer Chad Brown will also be running My Man Sam, with much shorter odds of 13-1.
The Daily Racing Form notes that neither of his two entrants got to the races until late in their 2-year-old season, a result of Brown’s training philosophy.
“I worked for two people that weren’t in a hurry with the horses, and on top of that, as a student of the game, it hasn’t been proven to me that getting them started early – especially horses that are well meant to stretch out, well meant to be stakes horses beyond their 2-year-old year on turf or dirt – has proven to work for the longevity of the horse,” Brown said.
