She will then be aimed for the November 23 trials of the Los Alamitos Two Million in Cypress, CA.<\/p>\n<p>In bypassing the second leg of Quarter racing&#8217;s Triple Crown, Heartswideopen forfeits a chance to earn a total of $5.5 million, including the $4 million Triple Crown bonus and the winner\u2019s share from each race.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"floatright\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sallyharrison.com\/features\/pix\/DraperCarl.jpeg\" \/>It was my call to preserve a fast filly,&#8221; said Draper, who trained 2005 AQHA world championship DM Shicago (in photo with Draper). &#8220;I think I can freshen her up and be ready for the All American and then freshen her again and be ready for the Two Million. She&#8217;s sound, but she&#8217;s run five hard races.
