Metro Pace at Mohawk CA $970,000 Purse

[winky]

Looks like the top US 2 yr old colt Clever Cody showed up after winning
quite a few races...after posting a staggering 1:51 flat mile at Northfiled
as well as ....





 the top Canadian 2 yr old undefeated 2 old colt
Legendary Hanover..6 for 6
Approximately a 3/4 Million Dollar USD $  Purse was on the line.
1 Heat.

Captains Quarters with Jody Jamieson hit the wire in 1:49:3
 after cutting the fastest 3/4 time of the season in a 2 yr old race in Canada (1:22:1) and the USTA now has this Captain Treacherous 2 yr old
 as the fastest 2 yr old colt in North America.
 The program showed the his 4 races and last 1/4's of:

 26:1  26:1  26  25:2  with a few last halves in get this...

  52:3   !

Just for comparison, Tattoo Artist paced his 3/4 's in 1:22 Flat
that evening in a $75k FFA event.

Another 2 year old colt won the Metro in 2007 in an identical time.

1:49:3

Confirms how much greater a horse The Beach was compared to those current horses you mentioned.
He went as fast as they did but 16 years earlier.

Cambest went 1:46:2 in 1993

and few have beat that,,,to this day
So maybe the times are not that much different

1:49:3 for a 2 yr old at night in late September...

How fast can they go?

Maybe at the Red Mile with warm temp no wind
