Stay Thirsty Rises to the Top in The Travers

Stay Thirsty has risen to the top of the heap!  Once regarded as Uncle Mo’s stable-mate Stay Thirsty has won his way to the top of the 3-year-old division. 

After just missing the victory in The Belmont Stakes by 3/4′s of a length he followed that giant effort with an easy win in The Jim Dandy drawing away late andagain  followed that giant effort by taking down The Travers.

Heading into the Jim Dandy and again into The Travers I had stated that we still have not seen Stay Thirsty’s best race. What followed were 2 giant efforts by an improving 3-year-old that many had written off earlier during this year. 

Now, arguably perhaps, Stay Thirsty sits atop the 3-year-old division. If he takes down another big race this season …well that’s a no brainer!
