Sendero is Second Stakes Winner for City of Light

[Wandering Eyes]

Sendero became the second stakes winner and seventh winner overall for his freshman sire City of Light (Quality Road) with a maiden-breaking victory in the Jamestown S. at Colonial Downs Wednesday. Sent off the 1-5 favorite, the bay colt was hustled out of the gate and rushed up to press the pace four wide down the backstretch through a quarter in :22.66. He stuck his head in front nearing the stretch and bound clear while Bee Mountain chased him home in second.

Sendero missed by just a neck when second in debut over this same course and distance lawn July 18.

City of Light was represented by his first stakes winner over the weekend when Chop Chop won the Aristocrat Gaming Juvenile Fillies S. at Kentucky Downs last Saturday.

Trishas Even has a yearling colt by Omaha Beach. With no foal reported this year, she was bred back to Bolt d'Oro. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by TVG.
