Sir Seamus makes it 3 of his last 4 with wire-to-wire score

The hot streak of Sir Seamus continued at Gulfstream Park yesterday, with the 4-year-old Handsome Mike gelding winning his second straight race and third in his last four starts.

Samy Camacho took Sir Seamus wire-to-wire with a mile on the grass in an excellent 1:34.97. The $13,000 OBS June 2-year-old was never challenged, earning a check for $15,400 and raising his career total to $76,140. He received an excellent Equibase ‘E’ rating of 108 for his four-length score, easily best of his 12-race career.

The fourth career victory for Sir Seamus translated into a seventh breeders’ award for Joe and Helen Barbazon in a span of 16 days; a streak begun by Til the End at Gulfstream on June 19.
