Upcoming plans for White Abarrio that is, right now, no plan.

Coach Saffie Joseph Jr. still considering the disappointing performance of ‘s son Race day in TVG.com Haskell Stakes (G1) at Monmouth Park July 23. White Abarrio finished seventh in the eight-horse Haskell race and was beaten nearly 35 lengths by the winner, Cyberknife .

“You never expect to run such a horse and go so far,” said Joseph at his stable on the back bench at Racecourse Saratoga.

Joseph had thoughts about running White Abarrio, owned by C2 Racing Stable and La Milagrosa Stable, in the $500,000 H. Allen Jerkens (G1) Memorial Park at the Spa on Travers Day, Aug. Another possible landing spot for the White Abarrio would be the $1 million Pennsylvania Derby (G1) on September 24 at Parx Race.

For now, Camp Joseph will just wait.

“In the next week, we’ll come up with a plan,” Joseph said. “After such a time (Haskell) you can’t come up with a definite plan. That’s confusing. We really don’t have an answer yet.”

Joseph also said that Daniel Alonso’s Skippylongstocking third place in Belmont Bets presented by NYRA Bets (G1) on June 11 and Thursday in Preakness Bets (G1) May 21, will run next in the $500,000 West Virginia Derby (G3) at Mountaineer Casino Resort & Racetrack August 6th.

Joseph thought about running Skippylongstocking, a son of Magnifier in $135,000 Curlin Shares restricted in Saratoga on July 29.

“We feel like we’ve lobbied him over the head,” says Joseph. “Why not give him a chance to win a big pot? If he runs well in West Virginia, then turn around and have him run in (Runhappy) Travers (G1, Aug 27).”

Joseph is running Anthony P. Gentry’s AP’s Secret the son of Cupid in Curlin.
