Trainer: Dante Zanelli Jr. Jockey:Alan Garcia Foaling Date: 2-13-2005 Pedigree: Street Cry - Inside Or Outside by Eastern Echo Dosage Profile: 6-3-9-0-0 Dosage Index/CD: 3.00 0.83 dual qualifier 2007 Record: 5 starts 4-1-0 $54,139 Best Beyer Figure: 92 Note: Raced in Peru last year and won the Group 1 Derby Nacional in November before shipping to the US. Rallied from last to finish 3rd in the Florida Derby behind Big Brown for his only start this year. He finished 6th as the favorite in the Lexington at Keeneland in a last ditch attempt to get enough earnings to make the Derby field, but he didn't make it. Went to the Peter Pan next and was never in it, finishing 7th. Came down with some congestion on June 1st and is out of the Belmont.
FYI - He is a dual qualifier because he was the 2-year-old champion in Peru last year.
