[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”6291″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”img-frame-small”][vc_column_text]This 2019 has become stormy for the equestrian family that has passed the bitter drink of suspended functions, record in equine deaths in a single season (Santa Anita), the first disqualification in the most important race for the three year olds and if this were not enough The heat made an appearance last weekend, forcing Saratoga, Laurel Park, Parx Racing and Monmouth Park to close their doors because of the tremendous heat that hit the top of the American continent.
Some protagonists came out well, such as Joel Rosario who did not make the trip to Del Mar in vain and took the two tests of share; José Ortíz took a good tug as he separated by two triumphs of the Panamanian Luis Saéz and this in turn takes three goals apart against the platoon formed by Javier Castellano, Irad Ortíz Jr and José Lezcano, a third of fearsome whips.
Maximum Secutiry, as expected, returned to the path of victory led by Luis Sáez at the Haskel Invitational, a three-year summit test offered by Monmouth Park. This comparison served to leave no doubt about the quality of the colorado that first realized King For A Day, a steed that honored the name in Pegasus where he defeated Jason Servis’s pupil, the race became interesting because after realizing King For A Day, Mucho Gusto jumped him and they took a hold during the final stretch that ended with a big victory by a long advantage. But at the end of the match, the board started shaking his followers again when he saw the word “Inquiry.” This means that the referees open an investigation to detect an incident during the race. “Objection” means that one of those involved, mainly riders, protests the result of an incident along the way.
It was inevitable to remember the first Saturday of May and the suspense grew when in the repetition we realized that when taking the final curve Maximum Security “threw the blade” at King For A Day and left it out of the fight, for his good luck not The investigation progressed because it was also evident that Todd Pletcher’s student was already going to throw in the towel, because when the incident happened it was seen that the retina began to run in reverse.
After waking this scare, we will surely see it in the last days of August in Saratoga contesting the Travers stakes.
Jim Dandy, who runs on Saturday, becomes more important, as we will meet one more of the possible opponents of Travers, who will join the group led by Tacitus, War Of Will and Code Of Honor.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
