Drew’s Gold holds the perfect record in Winkfield


Maintain unbeaten record, Drew’s Gold used a pre-run to score his first bet on February 11 in the $97,000 Jimmy Winkfield six-distance sprint at Aqueduct race track.

Owned by trainer James Chapman in partnership with Stuart Tsujimoto, dark bay or brown son of Violence won three career starts, achieving a sharp conquest that lasted 3 3/4 ahead of optional claimants on January 28 at Laurel Park.

Drew’s Gold broke her maidenhood in May at five feathers at Churchill Downsbeat the next winners Undalay And Top of my game . Slow in both previous outings, this time he broke through soberly and used his advantage over the long haul to win by a 4/4 margin under Jose Gomez.

First Awar from Lesson 4, Drew’s Gold takes the lead alongside Kool Kathmandu , who overcame the stumbling early, and Drew’sGold marked the first quarter of a mile at :23.47 on the fast main track. Gomez hits in the long leg as Kool Kathmandu drops out of contention with second pick 5-2 clubs flickered from third place out as half a mile passed in: 47.81.

At the beginning of the stretch, Drew’s Gold began to retreat as the Clubhouse attempted to launch a protest from outside with Joey soft drink among the horses. But neither horse caught up with the winner, who completed the journey in a final time of 1:13.09 on a track that produced a slower-than-usual time. Joey Freshwater ended up taking runner-up, while Clubhouse finished exactly three-quarters of the time.

Gomez said he drove Drew’s Gold with confidence.

“He won two back-to-back matches, neither of which were the best. I just wanted to make sure he stood right and let him do what he wanted,” Gomez said. “He came out strong today and I just tried to take care of him.

“I know I’m banging my head, but I don’t want to take too much from him,” he added. “I just let him do his own thing.”

Chapman credited Gomez for a fruitful trip.

“I like to see (good break) because … he’s leaving on his own, and then he’s swooping in behind. Whenever you have to grab a horse like that, they lose a lot of money. lots of energy,” Chapman said. “Today he was able to ride him with a rhythm, which I think helped him. He likes to sit on the horse and watch the horses, so when he got the lead, I think We had a really good chance.”

In addition to being undefeated, Drew’s Gold’s three wins all came on different tracks.

Chapman said: “He was a really professional horse; it’s just the little things. “We had setbacks after the first race, and the little things that babies usually get over, make it take a little longer. It can get scared by a sign on the way to the paddock. No big deal, and it’s very easy to ride with.”

Chapman said Drew’s Gold will likely target the $200,000 Bay Shore Stakes (G3) at seven points extending April 8 at the Aqueduct.

Returning $5.5 on a $2 winning bet as a favorite after 8-5, Drew’s Gold made $55,000 on the win, taking his earnings past the six-child mark number to $140,120.

Bred in Kentucky by the Thoroughbred Woodford, he’s out of the big winning doubles whitewash mare Frolic’s Revenge and are half-brothers with America having fun a bet winner on the pitch.
