Second Camarero score for Amira’s Prince colt

The first winner for Amira’s Prince became the stallion’s first repeat winner on Saturday at Camarero Race Track in Puerto Rico, when Monkeyoffmyback made it two victories in three starts for rider Juan Esquilin.

The 3-year-old Kentucky-bred colt, favored at odds of 75 cents to a dollar in the 5 1/2-furlong test, sat a stalking second until the turn, then powered into the lead and drew off with authority in the final sixteenth to prevail by four lengths.

Monkeyoffmyback earned $3,770 for the effort, raising his total to $8,200 while competing in an environment of meager purses.
