Sun Beau Tops Gallant Fox Money Record Challenge
Willis Sharpe Kilmer’s Sun Beau races past the fading Gallant Fox as the latter’s $328,000 American earnings mark stands in danger. Sun Beau, five, trails Zev and Blue Larkspur but eyes the Agua Caliente $100,000 handicap in March after rest in Columbia and slating races in New Orleans. The Kilmer colt, a three-year run behind Sun Briar, has earned substantial sums across major tracks, with potential to surpass the record.
