Bio
Spinoff began his racing career by winning a five-furlong race at Gulfstream Park on June 23 of last year. Trainer Todd Pletcher then started him in the Saratoga Special Stakes Presented by Miller Lite, in which he ran third in a race that only drew four starters.

After a six-month break, the colt returned at Tampa Bay Downs on Feb. 22 in a one mile and forty yard allowance race, and ran off powerfully under John Velazquez to win by a widening 11 ¾ lengths. That was his first start around two turns, and it immediately made him one of Pletcher’s leading Kentucky Derby contenders. He followed with a hard-fought runner-up finish by three-quarters of a length in the Grade 2 Twinspires.com Louisiana Derby that most likely punched his ticket for the first Saturday in May.
Spinoff finished 18th in the Kentucky Derby Presented by Woodford Reserve.
Spinoff is a son of Kentucky Derby runner-up Hard Spun and out of a Grade 1-winning dam, Zaftig, who was a sprinter-miler. His second dam (maternal grandmother), Zoftig, was a Grade 1 winner at a mile and a sixteenth who also produced Zo Impressive, a Grade 1 winner at the same distance.
