Caravel Wires the Turf Sprint

[Wandering Eyes]

CARAVEL (m, 5, Mizzen Mast—Zeezee ZoomZoom, by Congrats) blew up the tote at 43-1 to take the GI Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint. Away sharply, the gray zipped through an opening quarter in :21.91 and was soon confronted by a host of pursuers. Turning for home in front, she kept on finding to deny Emirati Ana (GB) (Shamardal). Heavy favorite Golden Pal (Uncle Mo) had a bad start and never showed up, finishing off the board.The gray entered this off a win in this venue's GIII Franklin S. Oct.16.
