Mine That Bird, winner of the Kentucky Derby for Double Eagle Ranch and Buena Suerte Equine, back-tracked to the paddock tunnel and then loped once around a “fast” Churchill Downs main track Tuesday under exercise rider Charlie Figueroa before the renovation break.

Trainer Bennie “Chip” Woolley Jr. liked what he saw and said Mine That Bird would lope around twice on Wednesday.
