Gunmetal Outduels Prime Power In Juvenile Showdown At Fair Grounds
Yesterday at 05:44 PM
A pair of promising first-time starters went head to head at Fair Grounds Thursday with GUNMETAL (2, c, Gun Runner–Classy Dancer, by Speightstown) just getting the better of Prime Power (Medaglia d'Oro) in the final yards to graduate on debut. Both expensive yearlings, Gunmetal sold on a final bid for $410,000 to the partnership of WinStar Farm, China Horse Club and Siena Farm while Winchell Thoroughbreds went to $500,000 for Prime Power both at Keeneland September last year. The pair outclassed the rest of this field, locking heads into the far turn and separating themselves down the stretch in a duel that lasted until Prime Power blinked first to give Gunmetal the win. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0.
