Constitution Colt Closes Pick 3, Caps Exacta for Pletcher in Cigar Mile

[Wandering Eyes]

Trainer Todd Pletcher completed a graded Pick 3, and an exacta, to close out the card at Aqueduct Saturday as AMERICANREVOLUTION (c, 3, Constitution–Polly Freeze, by Super Saver) reeled in his stablemate Following Sea (Runhappy) in the in the GI Cigar Mile H. Presented by NYRA Bets. Coming off an 11 3/4-length drubbing in the Empire Classic H. against state-breds in the slop at Belmont Oct. 30, the tepid 5-2 pick seemed to spin his wheels a bit in the early stages while sitting in between horses in midpack as Following Sea showed the way. He popped out and got going at the head of the lane, but brushed with Plainsman (Flatter) as that rival tried to force his way out of a spot. Americanrevolution kept on coming, and leveled off well to collar his stablemate in the shadow of the wire and prevail by a half-length. Plainsman was third. The stewards looked at the stretch bumping but made no change. Sales history: $275,000 ylg '19 SARAUG.
