Margaux Freshening Grad SCALDING extends win streak in G3 Challenger S., going 1 1/16 at Tampa Bay Downs on March 12.
Coming off victories in a MSW and allowance to kick off his 4 YO campaign, SCALDING broke just off the front runners and chased from the outside through an honest half in :48.14. Under a strong ride from Javier Castellano, he moved forward rounding the far turn and fought home to outlast CODY’S WISH by a neck in 1:43.53.
A $400,000 yearling purchase for Solis/Litt, the son of Nyquist is trained by Claude R. McGaughey III for owners Grandview Equine, Cheyenne Stable LLC and LNJ Foxwoods. This was his first graded stakes victory and brings his earnings to $124,800.
