Trainer:Nick Zito Jockey:Eibar Coa Foaling Date: 3-18-2003 Pedigree: Fusaichi Pegasus - Marozia by Storm Bird Dosage Profile: 12-4-18-0-0 Dosage Index/CD: 2.78 0.82 2005 Record: 5 starts 1-1-2 $145,820 Note: Winner of the Whirling Ash at Delaware, he was 3rd in the Champagne then 5th in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile last year. Was second by 3 lengths in a 7 furlong allowance race at Gulfstream Park in his first start this year. Seems to be moving the wrong direction as he was 3rd in a 1 mile allowance at Gulfstream, tiring after he got the lead after 6 furlongs, and then was never really in contention in the Lane's End at Turfway, finishing 5th. Zito gave him one last try in the Arkanas Derby and he was never in contention, finishing 11th.
