Breaking with tradition. Kid Flash vs Doomsday.


A stated policy of Otsego Farms has been never to race two of our horses against each other. In fact, in 7 racing seasons we have never had more than one entry in a single race.

That tradition will end next weekend when two of the Superheroes of Racing will square off in the 6 furlong T.J. Smith Stakes at Royal Randwick. 6yo Doomsday and 4yo Kid Flash, will meet in a move that surprised everyone in the organization from top to bottom.

As to who would come out on top, opinions varied among Otsego principals.

"The old feller will kick his arse, and no mistake", said one Doomsday supporter.

"The Kid'll get 'em in the last furlong", a Kid Flash groom commented.

Whatever the outcome, this race has raised eyebrows and interest at Otsego Farms.
