The Puma at the Spa 🎪
With Javier Castellano up, The Puma breezed over the main track at Saratoga this morning: 5f in 1:02.16.
The Grade 1 Travers Stakes is the target Aug. 29 🎯
Why don't they put that $5 mil towards a 4 yr old campaign. Long term viewership should be the focus, as well as an incentive for owners to keep their horses racing instead of going straight to the breeding shed. – at Charleston, SC
ALERT: .@TheNYRA and @ChurchillDowns will launch a championship series next year for 3-year-olds. The series includes the Kentucky Derby and Belmont Stakes but does not include the Preakness Stakes. go.bloodhorse.com/3RHLaSQ #TC2026
