Paradise Farms Corp. and David Staudacher’s Me and Mr. C (Khozan – Abiding), last in the early going of the $250,000 KY Downs Preview Turf Cup Stakes on Sunday at Ellis Park, circled horses on the turn to reach contention, sustained his bid down the stretch and got up in the final yards to win by a neck. It’s the third straight stakes victory for the 6-year-old Florida-bred son of Khozan, consigned by Paul Sharp, Agent, to the 2019 OBS March Sale, where he went through the ring after turning in an Under Tack eighth in :10 1/5. Trained by Mike Maker, he’s now 33-10-6-5 and has earned $545,039. watch his under tack video
Pewter Stable and Spedale Family Racing, LLC’s All That Magic (Fast Anna – Hermione’s Magic) stepped into stakes company for the first time in Sunday’s $104,000 Incredible Revenge Stakes at Monmouth Park. The 4-year-old Florida-bred filly by Fast Anna, trained by Kathleen A. Demasi, took the lead at the start and gamely held it to the wire, scoring by a nose, with fellow OBS graduate Can’t Buy Love (Twirling Candy – Pay the Kitten) closing well for third. It’s her fourth straight win, and leaves her with an 8-5-1-1 record and $150,391 in earnings. The two-time OBS graduate was consigned to the 2020 October Yearling Sale by Summerfield (Francis & Barbara Vanlangendonck), Agent, and then sold for $40,000 by Envision Equine, Agent, at the 2021 Spring Sale after breezing an Under Tack eighth in :10 flat. watch her under tack video
