Trinniberg
Stakes Tops Gulfstream Saturday Card
The
Saturday feature race at Gulfstream Park is the Trinniberg.
But it
could also be called the “Close, But No Cigar.”
The Trinniberg has a $75,000 purse and is seven furlongs on dirt for three-year-olds and up that have never won a stakes race on dirt.
The Trinniberg has a $75,000 purse and is seven furlongs on dirt for three-year-olds and up that have never won a stakes race on dirt.
The
ten-horse field has several horses that have hit the board in a dirt stakes
and/or have won allowance or high-level allowances or optional claiming races
on dirt at Gulfstream.
Ledokol,
Hy Riverside, Wildcat Wish, Hy Kodiak Warrior and Abounding Legacy all fit one
or both of those billings.
They are
part of what shapes up as a wide-open betting race that could produce some
attractive exacta and trifecta payoffs.
The
Trinniberg is the tenth race with scheduled post of 5:30 p.m.
We will be
at Gulfstream during the afternoon and will have a preview on this blog
Gulfstream
has a 12-race card with first post of 12:45 p.m.
There is a
carryover of $232,716 on the Rainbow 6, on races seven through 12.
*The
Trinniberg is named for the South Florida-stabled horse that won the 2012
Breeders’ Cup Sprint (Grade 1) at Santa Anita in Arcadia, Calif,
In 2012,
his three-year-old season, Trinniberg won three other graded sprint stakes
including the Swale (Grade 3) at Gulfstream.
Bisnath
Parboo and his son Shivananda trained Trinniberg and their family owned the
horse.
Neither
has trained any horses since 2014. Their
family-owned Sherry Racing remains active as an owner.
Following
a private sale late in 2013, Trinniberg has been a stallion at Rockridge Stud
near Hudson. N.Y. His 2016 stud fee is
$5,000.
*Gulfstream
will have eleven races on Sunday, with first post at 1:15 p.m.
The feature
tenth race is the $75,000 Monroe at seven furlongs on dirt for fillies and
mares three-years-old and up that have never won a dirt stakes race.
The Monroe
is basically a distaff counterpart to the Trinniberg.
The race
has eight entrants. Miss Hollywood and
Winning for Sarahare among the likely
favorites.
