Stewart postpones Golden Soul's work for a few days Golden Soul, runner-up to Orb in the Kentucky Derby, was scheduled to breeze at Churchill Downs on Saturday morning, but trainer Dallas Stewart called an audible and delayed serious training for another few days. "He had a really good day galloping, but I passed on working him this morning," Stewart said. "He ran a great race in the Derby, but it was a hard race on him and his appetite is still coming back." Charles Fipke's homebred son of Perfect Soul is still on track for the $1 million Belmont Stakes on June 8. "I was going to give him two works, but now I'm looking at just one," Stewart said. "I'll likely breeze him the middle of this week on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday. That will give him about eight or nine days between the work and the race." Golden Soul has a record of 1-3-0 from six starts with earnings of $517,400. His lone victory came when he broke his maiden by 7 1/4 lengths at Fair Grounds in December. The chestnut colt made his sophomore debut a runner-up effort behind Preakness Stakes victor Oxbow on January 19 at that same track in the Lecomte. He followed that up with a sixth-placing, beaten just three lengths, in the Risen Star prior to a rallying fourth in the Louisiana Derby. Bet Horseracing Free Online at TwinSpires.com
