Jeranimo rallies to win Del Mar’s Eddie Read Stakes

B.J. Wright’s Jeranimo was last in the early going in Saturday’s $300, 000 Eddie Read Stakes (G1) at Del Mar but came flying in the lane, hit the front in deep stretch and was a length and a half length clear at the wire. It’s the second grade one win for the 7-year-old Florida-bred son of Congaree, sold for $50,000 by On Course Sales, Agent, at the 2007 OBS August Sale. The win gives him a 35-10-6-5- record and earnings of $1,400,864.

Thomas D. Shank and Stan Young’s Good Lord went to the lead in the $50,000 Don Bernhardt Stakes at Ellis Park on Saturday, turned back a challenge from fellow OBS graduate Right to Vote (March ’11) at the top of the stretch and went on to win by 3-1/4 lengths. Right to Vote settled for third. Winning the Don Bernhardt for the second straight year gives the 6-year-old Florida-bred son of Greatness six stakes wins, a 51-10-9-11 record and earnings of $536,564. He was consigned by Tradewinds Farm, Agent, to the 2009 OBS June Sale. watch his under tack video

Ywachetta H. Driver and James Travis’ Guns Loaded fought on the front end all the way in his debut in a $76,000 maiden special at Del Mar on Saturday before easing away in the final yards and scoring by a length and a half. The two-time OBS graduate was first sold by Equest Thoroughbreds, Inc. at the 2012 August Sale. Consigned by Welcome Gate Farm, Agent, to the 2013 April Sale, the 2-year-old colt by D’wildcat brought $175,000 after working a quarter in:21 flat at the Under Tack Show. The win was worth $45,000. watch his under tack video
