HOT SPRINGS, Ark. – It’s a Hall of Fame roll call in the featured eighth race Sunday at Oaklawn Park, with entrants from trainers Asmussen, Hollendorfer, Lukas, and McGaughey. Check that. It’s not the McGaughey that goes by Shug. It’s the one that goes by Reeve. John Reeve McGaughey, the 30-year-old son of Hall of Fame trainer Shug McGaughey, is expected to have his first starter as a trainer in the optional $80,000 claiming sprint for 3-year-olds, which drew a field of 12 led by Southern California invader Ancient Warrior. McGaughey did have a runner entered here Saturday in Fast Talking, but that horse is on the also-eligible list. McGaughey saddles Crocketts Bluff for Shortleaf Stable on Sunday. Reeve accompanied 11 horses trained by his father to the Oaklawn meet, and those will now run in his name with the launch of his career – and the support of both the owners and his father. “We’ve been talking about it,” Reeve McGaughey said. “I felt like now’s the time to get started.” Reeve McGaughey has worked for his father the last five years and before that spent about the same amount of time with his uncle Charles LoPresti, who trained two-time Horse of the Year Wise Dan. “I’ve wanted to train horses since I was old enough to have an idea of what I wanted to do,” McGaughey said. “I’ve been around it my whole life.” A native of New York who grew up in Lexington, Ky., McGaughey said he will likely set up shop in Kentucky after Oaklawn. In this new venture, he brings some important lessons taught by his father, including being “up front” in business dealings and “patience with the horses.” McGaughey called Sunday’s race a starting point for Crocketts Bluff, who is making his first start since November in the six-furlong sprint. The horse was a maiden special weight winner at a mile in October at Laurel. Crocketts Bluff will be ridden by Declan Cannon. “We’re looking forward to getting him started back,” McGaughey said. “Three-quarters might be a little short for him. Hopefully, he’ll make a run. “He’ll probably need a little pace in front of him to be effective.” Jerry Hollendofer trainee Ancient Warrior could go favored off a wire-to-wire debut win at Del Mar for which he earned a Beyer Speed Figure of 81. Steve Asmussen trainee Little Menace earned the same number last out for a front-running maiden special weight win at Churchill Downs. D. Wayne Lukas counters with American Butterfly, an American Pharoah colt who was fourth in the Grade 1 Hopeful at Saratoga. First post for the Super Bowl Sunday card is an early 12:35 p.m. Central.
