Chub Wagon is undefeated in six career starts
Even in a career that counts more than 2,000 winners and a dozen graded-stakes, trainer Guadalupe Preciado can count the truly special ones he s had on one hand.
Two fingers, even.
The first belongs to millionaire Favorite Tale, who captured the 2014 Gallant Bob (G3) and 2015 Smile Sprint (G2), and later that year ran third in the A.G. Vanderbilt Handicap (G1) and Breeders Cup Sprint (G1). Favorite Tale was no stranger to Maryland, winning the Dave s Friend at Laurel Park in 2018 in his penultimate career start.
Preciado points a second finger to his current stable star, Daniel Lopez and George Chestnut s 4-year-old homebred filly Chub Wagon, undefeated through six career starts. The bay daughter of Hey Chub will be aiming for her third consecutive stakes triumph in Sunday s $100,000 Shine Again at historic Pimlico Race Course.
