Duke of Marmalade, who will go in the Classic, jogged on the main track Wednesday with his stablemates. Trainer Aidan O'Brien said, "Duke of Marmalade is one of those horses who likes a strong tempo through the race. He's another horse that likes fast ground. He's very dour and very tough, a good cruiser with a great constitution. If he gets a good break and gets a good position, he'll be tough. They trotted and they seemed to be lovely on it. They will canter tomorrow (Thursday) and will canter the next day."
