We were going to wait and give him a little break," Lukas told Daily Racing Form. "But in the days following the race, he was so sharp and so full of himself we decided to go. It may jump up and bite us. But he's doing awfully well, and he's probably a better horse at a mile and a sixteenth."
Hightail won the six-furlong Juvenile Sprint in his ninth start, which includes a pair of sixth-place finishes on synthetic and turf at 1 1/16 miles. But his 90 Beyer speed figure in the Breeders' Cup is the highest for any horse in the field of nine except for Goldencents, who earned a 93 figure in his debut sprinting at Del Mar before finishing second in Belmont's Champagne to unbeaten Breeders' Cup Juvenile winner Shanghai Bobby.
Goldencents, the 5-2 favorite, is trained by Doug O'Neill, who won the 2012 Kentucky Derby and Preakness with I'll Have Another. O'Neill also is running Know More, who won his racing debut in a Grade II stakes and was second in the Grade I Del Mar Futurity and Santa Anita's FrontRunner before racing extremely wide throughout the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf, finishing 13th. Know More is owned by Paul Reddam and will be ridden for the first time by Mario Gutierrez, the jockey of I'll Have Another.
Others in the Delta Jackpot include Saratoga's Grade II Sanford winner Bern Identity, who won Delta's $200,000 Jean Lafitte; two-time Calder stakes-winner Itsmyluckyday, and Central Banker, a five-length allowance winner at Churchill Downs.
