Ozone Park, NY (SportsNetwork. Robert Svehla Jersey .com) – Stakes winning colt El Kabeir will begin his 3-year-old season Saturday in the $200,000 Jerome Stakes at Aqueduct. Trained by John Terranova, El Kabeir will take on eight rivals in the mile, 70 yard stakes with Hall of Fame jockey Calvin Borel riding for the second straight start. The pair will leave from the far outside post. El Kabeir, owned by Zayat Stables, is coming off a wire to wire victory in the 1 1/16-mile Kentucky Jockey Club Stakes at Churchill Downs on Nov. 29. That win came after the colt was second in Aqueducts Nashua Stakes on Nov. 2 in the mud. A mile-and-an-eighth to a mile-and-a-sixteenth here. We just thought wed ship to see how he shipped, first time going on the road, Terranova said after the Churchill victory. Hes a real talented colt. Hes just a little bit trying to find his balance. El Kabeir broke his maiden by 10 3/4 lengths in his second start on Aug. 30 at Saratoga. He ran a freaky race that day and a freaky number. When we ran in the Champagne (fourth on Oct. 4) it was just a mess the track that day. We broke from the rail and it was awful at Belmont. The track, he just couldnt take it, the trainer noted. El Kabeir has two wins with a second and a third in five races for $268,892. Pennsylvania-bred Nasa will start from El Kabeirs immediate inside with Kendrick Carmouche again riding the colt. Nasa is a son of 2004 Kentucky Derby and Preakness champ Smarty Jones. Nasa has the same connections as his sire, Someday Farm and trainer John Servis. The colt won the $100,000 Pennsylvania Nursery at Parx Racing four weeks ago, just as his father did, and has banked $99,050 in his four starts. Here is the field for the Jerome from the rail out: Mini Cosmo, Angel Arroyo; Royal Burgh, Manuel Franco; Tencendur, Jeremy Rose; Ostrolenka, Jose Ortiz; Now We Are Free, Fernando Jara; General Bellamy, Junior Alvarado; Ackeret, Irad Ortiz Jr.; Nasa, Kendrick Carmouche and El Kabeir, Calvin Borel.

Instead, he focused on acquiring depth, of both players and picks, casting a wide net over the two days in Philadelphia. „We had a smattering of everything,“ said Cheveldayoff. „We got some high skill in the first round, we got a big two-way defenceman early today, and we picked up some more skill, some grit on the wing and then we got some big centremen at the end as well.“ The Jets made two trades as well, sending the 159th pick and the rights to goalie Eddie Pasquale to the Washington Capitals for the 164th and 192nd picks in this years draft and a seventh-round pick in 2015. The Jets also acquired Ottawas sixth-round pick in 2015 for their 189th pick this year. „We came in with seven picks, and we ended up picking seven players,“ said Cheveldayoff. „We stockpiled some picks for next years draft, and we did come in saying that if we felt we were going to get our players later in the draft that we could get to see if we could move down. „We ended up acquiring an extra pick when we moved the rights to Eddie Pasquale, so we had some picks that if we could find a way to move into next year to have those assets moving forward, that was something we were looking forward to.“ The Jets took Jack Glover from the United States under-18 team with the 69th overall pick, their highest pick on the second day of the draft. „Hes got good size, he moves very well, and hes a good two-way defenceman,“ said Cheveldayoff. „Getting him in the third round is something we were very excited about, becausee where we had him on our list was not in that realm. Bill Torrey Jersey. When he was available we actually looked at trying to package something to move up into the later parts of the second round, but we couldnt find a match, so we were happy to get a player that we liked.“ „I like to push the pace,“ said the six-foot-three, 190-pound Glover, „and to get the puck to the forwards. I definitely think that Im a guy that relies on my skating and my vision, and I think those are my two biggest assets. Im not a big hitter, Im not a big bruiser, but I take great pride in my defensive game.“ With their fourth-round picks, the Jets took two players from the WHL: centre Chase De Leo from Portland and defenceman Nelson Nogier from Saskatoon. The team used its lone fifth-round pick on left wing Clinston Franklin of the USHL, and wrapped its activity in the sixth and seventh rounds with centre Pavel Kraskovsky from the Russia-Jr. team and centre/left wing Matt Ustaski from the BCHL. De Leo will join his childhood best friend and WHL rival, goalie Eric Comrie, as a Jets prospect. Comrie is the half-brother of NHL players Mike and Paul Comrie. „When we were 10 years old we had a piece of paper and we both signed it, saying that we were going to be teammates in the NHL one day,“ said De Leo. „Its pretty special and very exciting.“ Cheveldayoff likes the familiarity between the two prospects. „Its great to see the players in our organization have a bond already even before they get to development camp or training camp,“ said Cheveldayoff. „We are trying to build one family here, and its great to have a head start on it.“ ‚ ‚ ‚
