Owner, trainer, and breeder Brandon Greer has changed his mind, and will pay the $100,000 fee to supplement his Woodbine Mile winner Town Cruise to the Breeders' Cup Mile at Del Mar, reports the Daily Racing Form. The 6-year-old son of Town Prize is not Breeders' Cup nominated, hence the fee, and Greer had originally planned to let the gelding rest for the remainder of 2021.
Instead, Town Cruise has been showing Greer he's ready for more.
“I breezed him the other day, and tried to keep him as slow as possible,” Greer told DRF. “He was a little up that day. You remember when I won the Mile, I'd said I'd have to ask the horse. I stopped asking because two days later he said: 'Let's go again'. I was hoping he'd tell me: 'No I'm good, let's go home for the season', but he was anything but that.”
The winner of three of his four starts this season, Town Cruise has an overall record of 6-2-1 from 14 starts, with earnings of $789,642.
