After a 233 day vacation, our NY-bred is back at the racetrack. Even with the layoff, Star of New York still got respect at the windows in a $45,000 optional claiming race on July 15 at Belmont Park. By post time he was bet down to 5/2 odds, while his morning line was 6-1. Our hard knocker pressed the leader in the opening quarter mile in 23 and change. But he tired down the stretch and the long layoff was evident. We are looking forward to his second race in Chalk silks upstate in Saratoga, where he’s never been off the board in five lifetime starts.
