Idaho’s connection – California Chrome returns Saturday

IdaBet.com has a special fondness (as do most) for this 2014 American Horse of the Year. Bred in California, Chrome has some Idaho roots (sired by Lucky Pulpit). Chrome will make his return to the races on Saturday, January 9th, 2016 in the Grade 2 $200,000 San Pasqual Stakes. With expected rain in the area California Chrome could make his comeback on a sloppy surface. All races on the Santa Anita card will be on the main track.

California Chrome hasn’t been seen at the races since finishing a good second in the Dubai World Cup last March. He got back with a work in November and turned in a very impressive drill last Saturday at Santa Anita. With Trainer Art Sherman in charge, and Chrome coming off extended layoffs, he will likely take a lot of money at the windows, so looking for alternatives might be a good move.

Good luck to you all and to Chrome and his connections this weekend. Thanks for choosing to direct your play our way at IdaBet.com.
