Seize the Grey breezed six furlongs over the main track at Saratoga on Tuesday morning ahead of a planned start in the Grade 2 Jim Dandy on July 27.
The Preakness winner, who was seventh last out in the Belmont Stakes, covered the three-quarters of a mile in 1:11.52 seconds and was the only worker at the distance.
Trainer D. Wayne Lukas said his plans for Seize the Grey are geared toward the Travers (G1) on Aug. 24 because of incentives offered by Gainesway Farm as part of its deal to acquire breeding rights to the Arrogate colt.
