Undefeated Iowa-bred Glengarry, the 2-1 favorite, took command inside the eighth pole and posted a half-length victory in the fourth running of the $169,775 Bowman Mill for 2-year-olds Saturday on the closing day of Keeneland's fall meet.
With Luis Saez aboard for trainer Doug Anderson, Glengarry covered six furlongs on a fast dirt track in 1:11.52. With the performance, Anderson secured his first Keeneland stakes victory. He co-owns the winner with Aaron Kennedy and Toby Joseph.
“We learned something today, that he'll rate,” Anderson said. “And hopefully we're on to better things. (Iowa) is a little bit smaller state in the horse business, and (winning at Keeneland) just helps everything. We're just tickled to be here.”
Bred by Highpoint Bloodstock, Glengarry is a gray/roan colt by Maximus Mischief out of the Tizway mare L. A. Way. He earned $90,675 for the victory to push his career earnings to $177,501. Glengarry is undefeated in three career races, including the Iowa Cradle Stakes at Prairie Meadows on Sept. 30 in his most recent start.
Glengarry paid $7.46 for the win. Normandy Hero, ridden by Alex Achard, finished 3 1/4 lengths in front of third-place finisher Valentine Candy with Ricardo Santana Jr. aboard.
Patriot Spirit was fourth and was followed by Cowes, Maycocks Bay and Sweet Soddy J.
