Course: Kentucky Downs
Race: Race 3
Horse: Panama
Trainer/Jockey: Brian Lynch – Gerardo Corrales
Breeding: 2-year-old gelding; Havana Grey – Azure Amour (Azamour)
Previously trained by Roger Teal. A winner of one of his two starts, there’s not a lot to go on with Panama – as with many in this field – but early signs look promising. He finished well from the rear off a steady pace on debut despite notable greenness, and made no mistake second time out, holding on well close home and looking to be doing little in front. That race hasn;t really worked out but this horse looks to have plenty of improvement in him still and joins a yard that can get one ready off the plane, while this 6.5 furlong distance should be just about perfect for him at this stage. We think he can run to about a 70 Beyer of ready to go, a figure that would put him well and truly in the mix here.
