News Preakness Stakes News | Mugatu Confirmed To Run May 7, 2024 Mugatu (Candice Chavez/Eclipse Sportswire/CSM) News Preakness Stakes News | Mugatu Confirmed To Run May 7, 2024 By: Press Release email Share: share on facebook share on twitter share on linkedin email this article Average Joe Racing Stables Ltd. and Dan Wells’ Mugatu, most recently fifth in the April 6 Blue Grass (G1), will return in the $2 million Preakness Stakes (G1) at Pimlico Race Course May 18, trainer Jeff Engler reported Tuesday. Pimlico Full Card Plays Available Now There’s a reason we’re the #1 trusted source for premium racing picks & info. Find Out Why Mugatu rallied from last in the 10-horse Blue Grass field to finish fifth behind Sierra Leone, Just a Touch, Epic Ride and Dornoch, all of whom went on to run in Saturday’s Kentucky Derby (G1) at Churchill Downs.Seize the Grey, who finished seventh in the Blue Grass, went on to win the Pat Day Mile (G2) on the Derby undercard.Mugatu, a son of Blofeld, broke his maiden at Gulfstream Park by 3 ¼ lengths Nov. 18 and had run four times over Turfway Park’s synthetic surface without success prior to the Blue Grass at Keeneland.“He’s getting better,” Engler said. “He really moved up on the dirt. His numbers proved it. Seize the Grey, who won the Pat Day Mile, we finished in front of him in the Blue Grass. I heard Seize the Grey is going in the Preakness, so it’s a logical spot. We were a little frustrated we didn’t get into the Derby. We feel the more distance, the better for this horse. I do like the mile and three-sixteenths, so we’re going to head up.”Mugatu is scheduled to breeze five furlongs Saturday before shipping to Pimlico.
