Point Dume, Book’em Danno No Worse for Wear After Carter 1-2 Finish
Bush Racing Stable’s Point Dume (Into Mischief) fended off Champion Male Sprinter Book’em Danno (Bucchero) by a neck on the front end to capture Saturday’s GII Carter at Aqueduct Racetrack.
Earning a 101 Beyer Speed Figure, the bay will continue to run in high-level races, although trainer Tim Kreiser still needs to determine a next spot.
“He looked really good this morning, walking around the barn like a soldier,” Kreiser said. “He ran a really good race. They put heat on him early, turning for home, he dispatched that one [Acoustic Ave] and then the big challenger. That’s his game. That’s how he likes it, he wants to look them in the eye. I think I’d rather go longer than shorter with him, we’ll sit down and talk it out.”
As for the beaten favorite, trainer Derek Ryan confirmed the 5-year-old appeared well on Sunday.
“He came out of it fine, no problems. He ate up last night–he’s good to go,” said Ryan on Sunday.
Ridden by Paco Lopez, the gelding was making his first start in seven months in the Wood.
“He got bumped pretty good coming out of the gate and was in a little bit of a pocket there, but all in all, we got a good race into him,” Ryan said of Saturday’s race. “I’d like to win, but you can’t win them all. Considering he was about 85% ready, he’ll be 100% for the next one.”
Ryan said the eight-time stakes winner will return to the Spa for a title defense in both the 6 1/2-furlong GIII True North on June 6 during the Belmont Stakes Racing Festival and the seven-furlong GI Forego on Aug. 29. His year-end goal is the GI Breeders’ Cup Sprint on Oct. 31 at Keeneland.
“He’ll move forward off that race,” Ryan said of the Carter effort. “I was probably one more work from having him where I wanted him. It’s the start of the year and the big picture is down the road. We want him 100% come the fall–the Breeders’ Cup is the main goal.
“His next spot will be Saratoga on Belmont Stakes Day,” Ryan continued. “He’s bigger and stronger this year. We’ll have the two races in Saratoga and then the Breeders’ Cup. That’s the plan at the moment.”

Albus Exits Wood Victory in Good Order, Leaves for Churchill Monday
Trainer Riley Mott knew it would be a big ask for Albus (Yaupon) to go from a one-mile and 40-yard maiden victory to the nine-furlong GII Wood Memorial, but the colt responded with aplomb to win from well off-the-pace on Saturday at Aqueduct and punch his ticket to Louisville for the GI Kentucky Derby.
“He came back covered in mud, and Jaime [Torres] said he wasn’t fazed at all by the kickback–going around horses, splitting horses in a big field,” Mott said. “It showed a lot of professionalism. I don’t think the number came back that strong, but he did it in a very workmanlike fashion, and that gives you confidence potentially going into a 20-horse field.”
Mott added Albus emerged from the effort in good order and is slated to leave Belmont Park for Louisville on Monday.
“So far, so good–jogged up well this morning and looks fine,” Mott said. “He ships to Churchill Downs [Monday Apr. 6].”
Mott, who went out on his own just four years ago, said it is beginning to sink in how special the First Saturday in May will be this year.
“It’s paramount. It’s what we strive for, to compete in those types of races–not just the Kentucky Derby, but we want to be in the mix for Breeders’ Cups and all the big races around the country,” Mott said. “To have two horses for the Kentucky Derby is extremely special, and hopefully we can keep the two horses happy and healthy and have a special month leading up to the Derby.”
Also headed to the Derby off a solid Wood Memorial performance, Chester Broman, Sr.’s dual graded stakes-placed Right to Party (Constitution) finished a deep-closing second behind Albus, earning 50 Kentucky Derby points and bringing his total to 65 after a third-place finish in the GIII Gotham. The colt was subsequently nominated to the Triple Crown by trainer Ken McPeek and now sits in 12th position on the Derby leaderboard.
“This horse just needed the added distance,” said McPeek, who upset the 2024 Kentucky Derby with Mystik Dan. “The horse had a really good winter and he’s obviously on the improve. This horse understands the task at hand, and he keeps coming and coming. The team up there has done a really good job with him, and it was great to watch.”
Jimmy Jerkens, McPeek’s New York assistant, said Right to Party was in good order Sunday morning at Belmont Park.
“He came back good, and he showed a lot of guts,” Jerkens said. “He always gets in a lot of traffic because of his running style, but he deals with it and when you get him out in the clear, he comes running.”
