Trained by Dallas Stewart, American Man has only finished outside the top three once in five lifetime starts when he ran fourth in the 6 1/2-furlong Amsterdam Stakes (G2) July 31 at Saratoga. A speedy son of Maclean’s Music, American Man easily won a first-level allowance going six furlongs at Churchill Downs in late May, then finished second one month later to Deep Flame in the seven-furlong Maxfield Stakes. American Man will be ridden in Saturday’s race by Cristian Torres and break from post 2.
The Harrods Creek field also includes Trade Winds Farm’s Ellis Park Derby (L) third-place finisher Stop the Car; Tagermeen Racing’s recent Saratoga allowance winner Tagermeen; and Pin Oak Stud’s two-time winner Gilded Banded.
