A pair of 2014 OBS March graduates got off on the right foot on Friday, winning at first asking at Churchill Downs and Santa Anita.
B & C Racing’s Cinco Charlie bounced right to the lead in his debut at Churchill Downs in a maiden special and stayed there all the way en route to a 2-3/4 length victory. The 2-year-old son of Indian Charlie, sold for $190,000 by Cary Frommer, Agent, after working an Under Tack eighth in :10 1/5, picked up a check for $26,400. watch his under tack video
At Santa Anita, Success Racing’s Henry’s Holiday was overlooked at 9-1 in his debut in a maiden special, but saved ground on the turn, came between horses to take charge in the lane then drew away to a 3-1/2 length victory over fellow March grad Sky Preacher. The 2-year-old colt by Harlan’s Holiday, purchased by Dennis O’Neill for $115,000 out of the Eddie Woods consignment after breezing an eighth in :10 3/5 at the Under Tack Show, earned $33,600 for his efforts. watch his under tack video
