“DEL MAR — Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner California Chrome likely will race at Del Mar on Nov. 29, according to his trainer Art Sherman, in a race that could affect the outcome of Eclipse Award voting for Horse of the Year and top 3-year-old.

Sherman said Wednesday that he nominated the 3-year-old son of Lucky Pulpit to the Grade I Hollywood Derby at 1 1/8 miles on the turf course for 3-year-olds that day, and the Grade III, $200,000 Native Diver at 1 1/8 miles on the Polytrack against older horses on the same card. Sherman said he prefers to run California Chrome on the turf.”
