It’s Paradise for Treasure Beach’s 30th winner
As the year 2018 has progressed, Treasure Beach has sired winners at such venues as Belmont Park, Gulfstream Park, Gulfstream West, Monmouth Park, Tampa Bay Downs, Finger Lakes and several tracks in Argentina. Yesterday, the son of Galileo added Turf Paradise to the list when Thirty Seconds Out broke his maiden racing six furlongs under veteran Scott Stevens.
The 2-year-old gelding owned and bred by Carl and Sherry Walker shot right to the lead and continued on to a wire-to-wire score, winning by three-quarters of a length in 1:11.71 and paying $4.40 as favorite (he had been second by a neck in his previous try). Thirty Seconds Out became winner No. 30 this year for Treasure Beach, whose progeny earnings are approaching $1.3 million.
At San Isidro in Argentina, where runners by Treasure Beach have enjoyed great success this year, Mirta finished second in the Gr. I Copa de Plata-Roberto Vasquez Mansilla Internacional, earning a check for $14,472.
