Night Officer Second in the Laurel Dash

Like fine wine, Night Officer keeps getting better with age. Racing over the Laurel turf course where he’s never been worse than third in 6 career starts, Night Officer delivered yet another valiant performance before grudgingly settling for second place in the $100,000 Laurel Dash Stakes. The race was remarkably reminiscent of  his previous effort in the Mister Diaz Stakes in August. He once again finished a half-length behind the winner and posted an identical 90 Beyer Speed Figure while drawing clear of the rest of the field.
