Comma to the Top, Gourmet Dinner to duel in Hollywood Park’s CashCall Futurity

Share

Comma to the Top will come in with an impressive streak and Gourmet Dinner with an impressive wallet in Saturday’s $750,000 CashCall Futurity at Hollywood Park, a Grade I race over 1 1/16 miles for 2-year-olds.

Last year’s CashCall provided another springboard for Bob Baffert’s 2-year-old star Lookin at Lucky, who went on to win the Preakness in May.

Comma to the Top, trained by Peter Miller, will seek his fifth straight victory, which would put him high up in the Kentucky Derby conversation, along with Uncle Mo and Boys of Tosconova, the 1-2 finishers in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile this year.

Gourmet Dinner, shipped in from Calder and trained by Steve Standridge, won the $1-million Delta Jackspot on Nov. 20 at Delta Downs and already has winnings of $809,660.

Hollywood Park’s season closes Sunday, with the $75,000-added On Trust Handicap the feature race. Joel Rosario is expected to finish out his jockey title, with a big lead over Rafael Bejarano, and Doug O’Neill and John Sadler will decide the close trainers’ title in the final two days.
