Dual classic winner California Chrome has turned in his first workout since the Belmont Stakes, breezing up three furlongs at his home Los Alamitos in California.

Trainer Art Sherman and co-owner Steve Coburn were both pleased after observing the drill, which was timed in 37.6 seconds.

Track rider Anna Wells, filling in for regular rider Willie Delgado, had a firm hold on California Chrome as they started out on the backstretch. The striking chestnut picked up the pace in the final furlong while running with his ears pricked as Wells sat steadily.

Sherman said the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes winner had two weeks of jogging and galloping since he returned on July 17 from a five-week freshen at Harris Farms, the colt's birthplace, following his Triple Crown campaign.

"The horse hasn't gone back on us, and I think it won't take long for him to get back to himself,”Sherman said.

“He's kind of pushbutton. He's one of those horses that you love to be able to train because he does everything you ask him to do."

Sherman said he has not selected a prep race yet for California Chrome, whose major objective is the $5 million Breeders' Cup Classic at Santa Anita Park on November 1.

The trainer has mentioned the Los Alamitos Mile during the Los Angeles County Fair meet on September 20, or the G1 Awesome Again Stakes on September 27 at Santa Anita.

"We'll just play it by ear and see how he advances in his training and that will give me a good idea where we're at," Sherman said.

California Chrome's last start was on June 7 in the Belmont Stakes when he finished in a deadheat for fourth, ending a six-race winning streak that included victories in the G2 San Felipe Stakes, G1 Santa Anita Derby, G1 Kentucky Derby and G1 Preakness Stakes.
