Trainer:Barclay Tagg Jockey:Edgar Prado Foaling Date: 2-18-2006 Pedigree: Broken Vow - Night Storm by Storm Cat Dosage Profile: 10-7-14-3-2 Dosage Index/CD: 2.00 0.56 2008 Record: 3 Starts: 1 - 1 - 0, $71,060 Best Beyer Figure: 98 Note: Last year he broke his maiden first out at Saratoga, then was 5th in the Champagne at Belmont, and 2nd in the Nashua at Aqueduct. In his 2009 debut, he lead and faded to 2nd behind Capt. Candyman Can in the Hutcheson at Gulfstream. Never ran a lick in the Tampa Bay Derby, finishing 7th as the favorite. Skipped the Blue Grass to win an allowance at Keeneland the day before, so no way he can get in the Derby now because of lack of earnings. His next start was the Peter Pan at Belmont Park on the weekend between the Derby and Preakness where he set the early pace then tired to finish 4th.
