Trainer Rob Atras will have two chances to win the Queens County on Sunday when he saddles You’re to Blame and Olliemyboy in the $125,000 stakes for 3-year-olds and up going 1 1/8 miles over the main track at Aqueduct Racetrack.
A well-traveled 7-year-old son of Distorted Humor, You’re to Blame joined Atras’ barn two starts back when he was claimed out of a winning effort for $80,000 by Michael Dubb and Karen Murphy. Starting his career with Chad Brown, You’re to Blame broke his maiden in October of his 2-year-old season and earned his first graded stakes placing at 3 when he finished third in the Grade 3 Bay Shore at Aqueduct.
Moving to the barn of Todd Pletcher at the end of 2017, You’re to Blame earned his lone graded stakes victory when he took down the Grade 3 Greenwood Cup at Parx as part of a three-win campaign in 2018.
Third in his latest start at Churchill Downs going 1 1/6 miles, the bay was beaten just two lengths.
