Right Angle is Gunnevera’s first two-time winner

Right Angle became Gunnevera’s second winner in January, and his first runner to win two races, using a strong late run under Miguel Vasquez for a 5 1/2-length score in a $38,000 starter optional claimer over the Gulfstream Park Tapeta surface.

The 3-year-old filly was off sixth and raced in sixth place down the backstretch before beginning a three-wide run coming to the turn. She continued wide into the stretch and ran down 2-1 Blond Jak at the wire, winning by three-quarters of a length. Right Angle was clocked in 1:03.50, paid $24.80, and earned a check for $22,800, lifting her three-race total to $42,560.

Right Angle was bred by Tom MCrocklin and Frank Mermenstein, giving the former two Gunnevera victories in a week; McCrocklin is also a co-breeder of Princess Vera, Gunnevera’s New Year’s Day winner at Parx Racing.
