Breeders' Cup Workout at Hollywood Park

At Hollywood Park, likely Juvenile Fillies favorite STARDOM BOUND smoked five-eighths in :59 1/5 on the Cushion Track. The Chris Paasch filly has captured the Del Mar Debutante Stakes and Oak Leaf in smashing style.

Multiple Grade 1 winner TIAGO worked six panels in 1:12 3/5. Fifth in last year's Breeders' Cup Classic in Monmouth Park, the John Shirreffs charge will bid to improve on that performance this year.

Grade 2 winner AWESOME GEM, runner-up in the All American Stakes, posted 1:11 4/5. The Craig Dollase trainee has the Classic as his first preference, with the Mile second.

Santa Lucia H. scorer SANTA TERESITA, third in the Lady's Secret Stakes, finished up in 1:14 2/5.

Full brothers SLEW'S TIZNOW and SLEW'S TIZZY strode in 1:12 4/5 and 1:13 3/5, respectively, for O'Neill. Grade 2-winning Slew's Tizzy, a four-year-old, is on the also-eligible list for the Turf Sprint, his first preference, and the Dirt Mile. Grade 1-placed Slew's Tiznow, who landed the El Cajon Stakes in his belated sophomore debut, is ranked ahead of his older brother on the also-eligible list for the Dirt Mile.
