Santa Anita 12-29-07 – 1 Mile Turf
Eddie Logan Stakes – $79,850.
YANKEE BRAVO made his U.S debut a scintilating one in running away with Santa Anita’s Eddie Logan Stakes to remain undefeated. Seemingly trapped beyond hope in the stretch, Yankee Bravo made his own racing luck by bullying through a hole and then exploding away from the field in the final sixteenth. Favored for this contest after a dominating 6 length maiden score, Yankee Bravo demonstrated the brilliance that proved the hallmark of his sire’s racing career. Now with an impressive 15 winners from his first crop including stakes stars Yankee Bravo and Golden Yank, Yankee Gentleman enters 2008 with major momentum on his side!
Congratulations to owners Harlequin Ranches and Bienstock, breeders Tommy Burberry and Barry Hay, jockey Alex Solis and trainer Paddy Gallagher!
