Maryland<\/STRONG>–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Nothing like making dear ol’ Dad proud.\u00a0 Or, in this case, Mom-Pop?\u00a0 Dad-Mom?\u00a0 Mama-Papa?\u00a0 Yeah, mama-papa!\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/FONT><\/DIV>
<\/FONT>\u00a0<\/DIV>
Berenguela’s <\/STRONG>mama-papa is none other than Carby’s King<\/STRONG>, a Grade 3-winning Seeking The Gold horse who won a heap of dough for Fernando in his day.\u00a0 Carby’s King was a big graded performer too, posting sizzling numbers over a flat Monster Mile<\/EM>.\u00a0\u00a0He won 21 stakes races\u00a0over six seasons and even\u00a0appeared in the\u00a0Breeders Bowl (10th in 2002 Sprint).\u00a0<\/FONT><\/DIV>
<\/FONT>\u00a0<\/DIV>
So, just what can a Daddy’s girl\u00a0prove on the racetrack?\u00a0 Well, for starters, how ’bout win a Grade 3 for her very own?\u00a0 <\/FONT><\/DIV>
<\/FONT>\u00a0<\/DIV>
And that’s what Berenguela did in last week’s Grade 3 $125,000 Annie Oakley Stakes<\/EM>.\u00a0\u00a0 The sophomore filly sired by Tale Of The Cat captured her first graded stakes victory in fine off pace style.\u00a0 <\/FONT><\/DIV>
<\/FONT>\u00a0<\/DIV>
Competitive and often close all season, she went off as a mild longshot in the full field of sophomore fillies.\u00a0\u00a0 The closer inevitably benefitted from a free-for-all pace duel.\u00a0 \u00a0A herd of longshots dueked it out through the opening quarters with only the mild pace cruiser, Empire Gold<\/STRONG>, coming away with a piece of the purse.\u00a0 <\/FONT><\/DIV>
<\/FONT>\u00a0<\/DIV>
Instead, Berenguela relished\u00a0her late charge around the far turn.\u00a0 The filly gamely flew on by her rivals and outran skirom’s fellow closer Northerly Nicole<\/STRONG> down the stretch.<\/FONT><\/DIV>
“We only had the other closer to beat ‘coz the pacesetters were cooked,” jockey Emmit Walsh said.\u00a0“I clucked at Berenguela to keep her mind on business though.\u00a0 She has a habit of not finishing the final furlong.\u00a0\u00a0She was much the best though — the trainer (Fernando) had her super fit.”<\/FONT><\/DIV><\/BLOCKQUOTE>
Final time for the nine main track furlongs was a zippy 1:48 flat, a super mark for Berenguela’s 6th career triumph.<\/FONT><\/DIV>
<\/FONT>\u00a0<\/DIV>
Although the victory pushed her bankroll up over the $350k mark, she’s got a long way to go to catch her Mama-Papa’s $1.4M.\u00a0\u00a0Good luck, Carby’s King (and Fernando)!\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/FONT><\/DIV><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
