![]() American Day's maiden win in career start #2 (first on turf) was absolutely awesome.
The Nureyev half brother to Best Pal won by 13 in 1:41 and change at HP. Another turfer that was supposed to have won really impressively was Chapel of Dreams. I never saw her maiden win, but I believe this Northern Dancer half to Storm Cat won by about 15 in her first attempt on turf. Another NYRA horse I remember was Slew the Dragon. I remember him costing about 800k and his first two starts were up the track finishes on dirt. Switched to turf at Saratoga, he runs off and wins by 15. He ended up winning something like 6 out of 7 on turf, with his lone loss to Danger's Hour. I don't think he ever did anything at stud. |
