Caldera had his third start at Oaklawn today, and it couldn't have gone any better. He went straight to the front, held off one challenger heading into the turn and cruised home to a 5-1/2 length win under a hand ride by Rafael Bejerano. What a dream outcome!
This was over a mile and a sixteenth and against 3YOs and older horses, to boot. A nice contingent of partners were on hand to watch the race and ring the famous Oaklawn bell in the Winner's Circle. He was given an E-speed figure of 96, and I believe an 82 Beyer.
We'll see how he comes out of the race, and where The Coach (D. Wayne Lukas) decides to point him next.
