2019 Pegasus World Cup Update PT 2

A number of high-profile withdrawals and retirements have complicated the race over time with Mendelssohn finally being sent off to stud duty after what many will consider to be a promising but ultimately mismanaged career having only really one a few decent races and having been placed a little too aggressively with a lot of international shipping perhaps sapping away at his ability to put together his best volume of work.

Monomoy Girl was also pointed at this race for a while but she will be freshened over the next couple of months to kick off another campaign as a four-year-old in the spring sometime.

This leaves a very interesting group of contenders still in the mix here with Bob Baffert’s emerging charge McKinzie still likely to be pointed towards the race. There also remains the talented runner Gunnevera who was able to pick up the pieces to finish second in the Breeders’ Cup Classic behind Accelerate.

Gunnevera has done a lot of his best work at Gulfstream Park but you have to wonder whether his late running style will work well in this race which appears to be a furlong or so shorter than his preferred distance of ten furlongs where he tends to do his best running.

Diversify and Catholic Boy are also still in the mix here and both of them wouldn’t be a huge surprise to line up in the Pegasus, perhaps in partnership with another team who holds a ticket but no top level horse to run.
