TENSAS CAT WINS THE GENTILLY STAKES
Showing his affinity for the Fair Grounds lawn, Tensas Cat the 4-1 second choice did not disapoint his backers by rewarding them with a two length victory in the Gentilly Stakes. Tensas Cat was never far from the pacesetter Dynamic Time, he collared that foe and took command entering the last turn while holding off all rivals and covering the 1 1/16 miles in 1:46.21. Bred in Louisiana by Curt Leake, Tensas Cat is out of the Unbridled Song mare Kaileysgal. He is owned and trained by Steve Garber. Tensas Cat is CAT THIEF'S 19th winner of the year. CAT THIEF is Pennsylvania's current leading sire by winners. |
