Forty Fathoms Goes Deep in Gulfstream sprint

Forty Fathoms has won two of his four starts after a convincing victory racing 5 1/2 furlongs at Gulfstream Park yesterday. The 3-year-old son of Poseidon’s Warrior battled for the lead early under Reylu Gutierrez, putting up a :22.69 quarter. He shook free on the turn and it was over quickly as he cruised to the wire 2 3/4 lengths in front, clocked in 1:05.93. The colt bred by Peaches Robinson collected $13,500 for the victory and lifted his sire’s earnings to $575,516, good for 10th place on Florida’s general sire list despite the fact that as a second-crop stallion he has many fewer runners than the rest.
