Solomini, in his final work for the Kentucky Derby, went six furlongs in 1:14.60 in company on Sunday morning at Santa Anita.

John Malone of Santa Anita's clocking crew took Solomini breaking off at the five-furlong pole and out to the seven-furlong pole. He had Solomini in fractions of 25 flat, 49.80, and 1:01.80, and galloping out seven furlongs in 1:28.20.

Martin Garcia was up for the work. Flavien Prat has the mount in the Derby.

"He went well. He was interested," trainer Bob Baffert said by phone from California. "I wasn't looking for anything fast. We let him gallop out. It was a strong move."

Baffert said Solomin changed leads on cue, and said he has found that if Solomini is rushed, he doesn't perform as well. "If you get in a hurry, he doesn't change leads," Baffert said.

Baffert said his strategy in the Derby with Solomini is "break and grab him, sit and let him finish."

Justify, who worked on Saturday, went back to the track on Sunday and jogged, Baffert said.

Both Justify and Solomini are scheduled to fly to Kentucky on Monday.

Baffert also is bringing the 3-year-old Restoring Hope to Churchill Downs and said he is looking at the Pat Day Mile on the Derby undercard for him. Restoring Hope is currently 23rd on the Derby points list. Even if his connections were interested in running there -- and they're not -- he'd likely wind up on the also-eligible list.
