Takecareofbusiness 2nd in $65,000 Hollywood Beach in 2nd start

Takecareofbusiness showed his $134.80 debut score at Gulfstream Park was no fluke when he returned in his second start to finish a fast-closing second in the $65,000 Hollywood Beach Stakes at five furlongs over the Tapeta surface.

The 2-year-old gelding bred by Joe and Helen Barbazon, Ed Seltzer and Bevely Anderson became the third stakes horse for freshman sire Bucchero, collecting $12,740 for his runner-up finish and increasing his two-race total to $43,740. The $40,000 OBS March 2-year-old’s late rush under Heriberto Figueroa missed by just half a length of getting him stakes victory No. 1. The race went in :56.67, less than one second off the track record of :55.90.
