Fountain of Youth Stakes Field

The field is set for the 2009 Fountain of Youth Stakes (GII) at Gulfstream Park, a $250,000 prep for Kentucky Derby hopefuls. Last year, this race produced Derby starter Cool Coal Man. Here are the starters, with post position, and their morning-line odds.

1. Bee Cee Cee 30-1
2. Theregoesjojo 15-1
3. Notonthesamepage 4-1
4. Take the Points 10-1
5. Jack Spratt 20-1
6. Rocketing Returns 15-1
7. Beethoven 12-1
8. Break Water Edison 15-1
9. Capt. Candyman Can 5-1
10. Taqarub 6-1
11. Quality Road 8-1
12. This Ones for Phil 3-1

Note: For those of you observant enough to notice, you will see that Take the Points, the Todd Pletcher trained colt, is entered in both the Sham and the Fountain of Youth this weekend. Bloodhorse.com is reporting that he shipped to California this weekend, so it appears he will run in the Sham and scratch from the Fountain of Youth.

For those of you who just can't wait for some Fountain of Youth action, here's the replay of last year's running with Cool Coal Man:
