Entries have been drawn for the Gulfstream Park Derby! While quickly going through the nine horse field I noticed something interesting about Pablo Del Monte. The owner for the Gulfstream Park Derby is listed as Magnier Mrs. John Smith Derrick Tabor….
Pablo Del Monte Gulfstream Derby Ownership
Since I remember things like owners, I thought this was new and did not remember reading or hearing anything about an ownership change. In fact I thought Wesley Ward owned Pablo Del Monte. Digging through some old past performances I came across some Remsen Stakes nominations. Notice the owner listed as Paul Shanahan…
Remsen Nominations Ownership listed!
At this point I’m in Jacques-Yves Cousteau mode, and I go to my Delta Jackpot Nominations…. The Plot Thickens!
Pablo Del Monte – Delta Nominations Ownership
Things like this interest me and go a long way in explaining why the horse shipped out West and ran in a race without having a listed workout in 20 days going on the Turf.
Meanwhile read some quotes about Pablo Del Monte and the rest of the field from the Gulfstream Park notebook.
Should be a competitive race and the first “Derby” of the year for the Class of 2011 has come up with a solid field of 9 horses.
