Kevin Attard has recorded a pair of stakes wins with Starship Jubilee at Gulfstream Park, Barb Minshall recorded a graded stakes victory with Admiralty Pier at Tampa Bay Downs, and Mark Casse has won a trio of stakes events, including the Grade 3 Lecomte Stakes at Fair Grounds in January with Enforceable.<\/p>\n<p>Trainer Roger Attfield added his name to that list over the weekend, as Elizabeth Way captured the Grade 3 The Very One Stakes over 1 3\/16 miles on turf at Gulfstream Park on Saturday afternoon.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ratio ratio-16x9\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Roger Attfield&#39;s Elizabeth Way (IRE) fends off her competition in The Very One Gr.3, Paco L\u00f3pez aboard. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/GulfstreamPark?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#GulfstreamPark<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/ChampionshipMeet?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#ChampionshipMeet<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/EA56vztlne\">pic.twitter.com\/EA56vztlne<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Gulfstream Park (@GulfstreamPark) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/GulfstreamPark\/status\/1233847070794158085?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 29, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/div>\n<p>Elizabeth Way has now won both of her starts under the care of Attfield after joining the stable of the Hall of Fame trainer in December. After five starts without a victory in Europe, Elizabeth Way was purchased by John McCormack for \u20ac58,000 (approximately $86,500 CAD) at the Goffs Breeding Stock Sale last November. McCormack is the brother of Bernard McCormack, one of the top local sales consignors and breeder of 2016 Queen\u2019s Plate winner, Sir Dudley Digges. Following the Goffs sale, Elizabeth Way was then sent to Attfield at his winter base at Payson Park Training Center in Indiantown, Florida. Attfield has since seen the four-year-old daughter of Frankel break her maiden over 1 1\/16 miles and become a graded stakes winner in back-to-back starts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe\u2019s a lovely big, strong filly,\u201d Attfield said. \u201cShe\u2019s doing very well. She went into that race feeling very good. I was delighted with her. I was a little worried about that turf course down there, but she seemed to handle it ok and it was all good stuff.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Attfield added that he is looking forward to the upcoming Woodbine meet with Elizabeth Way, who he believes will enjoy longer races on the turf.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe really wants to go a mile and a half,\u201d he said. \u201cI think that\u2019s her best. The thought was that she\u2019d like the big turf course (at Woodbine) so she sort of surprised us all a little bit when we shortened her back on a small turf course. There\u2019s lots of upside with this filly I believe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Attfield said he would need to talk to McCormack before determining when and where Elizabeth Way would make her next start, but a longer term Woodbine target could include the Grade 2, $175,000 Dance Smartly Stakes over 1 1\/4-miles on the E. P. Taylor Turf Course on June 27.<\/p>\n<p>Among the 28 horses with Attfield at Payson Park for the winter are a pair of Sovereign Award finalists in Tiz a Slam and Mr. Hustle. Tiz a Slam won three graded stakes last season, including the Grade 3 Singspiel Stakes and Grade 2 Nijinsky Stakes at Woodbine, and was named a Sovereign Award finalist in the male turf division.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3376\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3376\" style=\"width: 1500px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3376\" src=\"https:\/\/woodbine.com\/kingsplate\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2020\/08\/TizaSlam-2019NijinskyStakes-MichaelBurnsPhoto.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/woodbine.com\/kingsplate\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2020\/08\/TizaSlam-2019NijinskyStakes-MichaelBurnsPhoto.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/woodbine.com\/kingsplate\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2020\/08\/TizaSlam-2019NijinskyStakes-MichaelBurnsPhoto-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/woodbine.com\/kingsplate\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2020\/08\/TizaSlam-2019NijinskyStakes-MichaelBurnsPhoto-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/woodbine.com\/kingsplate\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2020\/08\/TizaSlam-2019NijinskyStakes-MichaelBurnsPhoto-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3376\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Tiz a Slam and jockey Steven Bahen winning the 2019 Nijinsky Stakes at Woodbine Racetrack. (Michael Burns Photo)<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Tiz a Slam recorded a couple of workouts at Payson Park in January, but Attfield said he backed off on the six-year-old son of Tiznow. Attfield said he anticipated Tiz a Slam would make his first start of the season at Keeneland in April.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI haven\u2019t been super happy with him,\u201d Attfield said. \u201cWe weren\u2019t going to do too much with him this winter, but we were looking to run him a couple of times. I just felt that it wouldn\u2019t hurt him to have a bit more time. I haven\u2019t really been enamoured by that turf course down there, so I haven\u2019t been getting too excited about it at this point. He might get to run at the end of this meet here, but more likely in the Elkhorn at Keeneland.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Attfield said Tiz a Slam would return to the work tab soon in preparation for the Grade 2, $250,000 Elkhorn Stakes over 1 1\/2 miles on the turf at Keeneland on April 18. Tiz a Slam finished fourth in the Elkhorn last season before winning the Grade 3 Louisville Handicap at Churchill Downs in his next start.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s getting a lot of miles in him anyway and the Elkhorn is not until the end of April,\u201d Attfield said.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Hustle, meanwhile, is among a trio of three-year-olds that Attfield is excited about for 2020. Mr. Hustle was named a Sovereign Award finalist in the two-year-old male division, following a 2019 campaign that saw him go undefeated in three starts with stakes wins in the Victoria Stakes and the Soaring Free Stakes. Mr. Hustle hasn\u2019t raced since his victory in the Soaring Free on August 18, but Attfield said he has been pleased with Mr. Hustle\u2019s training this winter, which included a four-furlong breeze in 48.40 seconds on dirt at Payson Park on Saturday morning.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_15919\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15919\" style=\"width: 1500px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-15919\" src=\"https:\/\/woodbine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/MrHustle-VictoriaStakes-MichaelBurnsPhoto.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-15919\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Mr. Hustle and jockey Rafael Hernandez winning the 2019 Victoria Stakes at Woodbine Racetrack.

After winning his debut last July, Pleasecallmeback finished second behind his stablemate in the Soaring Free Stakes, and also ran second in the Cup and Saucer Stakes as a two-year-old. He also breezed four furlongs on the dirt in 51.40 seconds at Payson Park on Saturday morning. Attfield identified the Grade 3, $150,000 Transylvania Stakes over 1 1\/16-miles on turf at Keeneland on April 3 as a possible target for both Mr. Hustle and Pleasecallmeback. Attfield won the Transylvania back in 2016 with Shakhimat.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3375\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3375\" style=\"width: 1500px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3375\" src=\"https:\/\/woodbine.com\/kingsplate\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2020\/08\/Pleasecallmeback-072119-MichaelBurnsPhoto.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/woodbine.com\/kingsplate\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2020\/08\/Pleasecallmeback-072119-MichaelBurnsPhoto.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/woodbine.com\/kingsplate\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2020\/08\/Pleasecallmeback-072119-MichaelBurnsPhoto-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/woodbine.com\/kingsplate\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2020\/08\/Pleasecallmeback-072119-MichaelBurnsPhoto-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/woodbine.com\/kingsplate\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2020\/08\/Pleasecallmeback-072119-MichaelBurnsPhoto-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3375\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Pleasecallmeback, with jockey Rafael Hernandez, winning his career debut on July 21, 2019 at Woodbine.

It has to be the right spot. A lot of those races aren\u2019t filling so it\u2019s difficult to say (when they might race next). When they\u2019re ready to run, they\u2019ll run, but they\u2019ll definitely run at Keeneland for sure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Attfield\u2019s homebred filly Gun Society is also in training at Payson Park after capturing the South Ocean Stakes as a two-year-old last season. She breezed four furlongs in 50.80 seconds on dirt at Payson Park on Saturday morning and is nominated to both the Woodbine Oaks and Queen\u2019s Plate at Woodbine in June. Attfield said all three three-year-olds are on target to make starts at Woodbine later in the spring.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_17507\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17507\" style=\"width: 1500px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-17507\" src=\"https:\/\/woodbine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/GunSociety-SouthOceanStakes-MichaelBurnsPhoto.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-17507\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Gun Society and jockey Kazushi Kimura winning the 2019 South Ocean Stakes at Woodbine Racetrack.
