Out of Bounds, a 10-1 longshot that upset 1-2 favorite Secret Circle in
Saturday's Grade 3 Sham Stakes at Santa Anita, likely will make his next start
on the Triple Crown trail in the Grade 2, $300,000 San Felipe Stakes at 1 1/16
miles on March 10.
"He'll probably come back in the San Felipe," trainer Eoin Harty said Sunday
morning. "He came out of the race well and everything looks good right now."
Out of Bounds, an over-sized colt by Discreet Cat, is out of 2001 Breeders'
Cup Distaff winner Unbridled Elaine. The Darley Stable homebred rallied from
fourth at the half-mile marker in the Sham field of five to wear down previously
unbeaten Breeders' Cup Juvenile Sprint winner Secret Circle by a half-length
under Garrett Gomez, who was winning his sixth stakes race of the meet, the last
four in a row.
Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert said that Secret Circle "looks good" Sunday
morning, but mentioned no race for the colt's next start.

"They ran pretty fast," Baffert said. "He didn't accomplish a lot, but he ran
good. He just got beat.
"He did all the dirty work (prompting the pace in second place and then
leading until deep stretch in the one-mile Sham). I'm not ruling out two turns
for his next race, but we'll see how much this takes out of him."
