Hall of Fame horseman and two-time Kentucky Derby winning trainer Carl Nafzger
Hall of Fame trainer Carl Nafzger is scheduled to send out Jim Tafel LLC s Sensible Jim for his career debut Saturday at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Fla., marking the 79-year-old Eclipse Award winner s first starter since October 2019.
While Nafzger is for all intents and purposes retired, he will maintain his longtime association with the late Jim Tafel and his family in Race 7, a seven-furlong maiden special weight race for 3-year-olds in which Sensible Jim will break from the No. 12 post position under Corey Lanerie.
