Colors Has Winning Ways In CalCup Opener

Winning Ways, hailing from the series-sponsoring stable of Calumet Farm, made her way into the final of this season’s 1000m event with a convincing display in the opening round of the competition. This first round, restricted to horses registered to run in the Breeders’ Cup traditionally draws smaller but high quality fields. Even so, nine runners went to post for the sprint in the flat category and Winning Ways looks capable of making her presence felt in later rounds.

Calumet Farm, the winning owner, claims to have an even better one waiting to be unleashed and so must once again hold a very strong hand in the flat race series final at the end of the month.
