Chancellorsville, our 3yo bay colt by Nightwing out of Plenty of Grace, broke his maiden in stunning fashion this weekend by winning the Grade 2 AAMI Classic.
Win-less, place-less, and show-less in 6 career starts with zero earnings, this win allowed Chance to take home a check for $228,000, covering his $200k purchase price in one fell swoop.
A duel with the FDL colt Mystical Island ended with 2 furlongs to go when Chancellorsville surged into a lead that he was not to relinquish.
Chance becomes the second Nightwing offspring to win a race recently. Sphynx, a 3yo colt from History's Own, finished first in the G3 Cinema Handicap on May 29th. Coincidentally, Sphynx also won in his 7th career race.
We are convinced that Chance will continue to improve, making his poppa, and all of us at Otsego Farms proud.
