Poseidon’s Warrior vaults over $1 million

Poseidon’s Warrior surpassed the $1 million level in career progeny earnings yesterday when Firenze Fire finished a closing fourth in a field of nine in the $1 million, Gr. II Wood Memorial at Aqueduct. The 3-year-old colt earned $65,000 for his finish, and has now reached $669,100 for his nine career starts. His sire has earnings of $1,058,813, and the $460,347 for this year alone has elevated Poseidon’s Warrior into fourth place among Florida’s leading active sires, even though he’s the only one with just one crop at the races. Firenze Fire’s $220,000 bank account for 2018 is also best among all runners by Florida stallions.
