From DRF:

MIAMI - Trainer Kiaran McLaughlin won't have to wait very long if he wishes to get his talented 3-year-old Egg Head a rematch against Lost in the Fog. Both horses are nominated to the $300,000 Carry Back Stakes here July 9, although McLaughlin also has several other options for Egg Head if he chooses to avoid another confrontation.

Undefeated in seven races, Lost in the Fog beat Egg Head by 1 3/4 lengths when they met in the Riva Ridge Stakes at Belmont on June 11, the smallest margin of victory ever for Lost in the Fog. The loss also snapped a three-race win streak for Egg Head.

McLaughlin, who took over the training of Egg Head after his 9 1/2-length triumph in Delaware Park's LaBelle Memorial Stakes on May 7, has also nominated Egg Head for the $500,000 Smile Sprint on the July 9 Summit of Speed program. The Smile is open to 3-year-olds and up, and the Carry Back is restricted to 3-year-olds.

"He's nominated to both races at Calder but could also run in the Tom Fool Handicap at Belmont or in the mile and a sixteenth Leonard Richards Stakes at Delaware Park," McLaughlin said.
