Challedon Stole Show at Flamingo Course
Challedon, the six year old Macyland champion, delivered a stellar effort at Flamingo linking a strong comeback after seven months away. He finished second to Sheriff Culkin in the seven furlongs British West Indies Handicap with 14-to-1 odds on the infield board. Ed Christmas trained him well for a sound return with no fever in the left ankle. Challedon may race again before the $50,000 Widener Challenge Cup on March 7.
