Title: CAFE PHAROAH?
Post by: JohnTChance on June 30, 2020, 09:00:42 AM
Wondering what star 3-yr. old from Japan, CAFE PHAROAH, ran recently. He’s getting serious Derby Futures consideration. Is this something that can be disclosed publicly here?

He was impressive in winning the Hyacinth. #3 missed the break, wide through out the turn and relentless stretch run.

In the Unicorn Stakes, the video is a bit confusing because the audio is Japanese. #5 which I\'m pretty sure is CP breaks on top this time and crushes the race.

The colt was precocious and flexible as evidenced in this - two y/o race where he ran off and hid while going around a right turn as opposed to a left turn.

Cafe Pharoah is the 16 in the Unicorn, the 5 leads most of the way, but no one is close to the 16 approaching the wire, he was wide and moved up to be 2nd and took over in the stretch and just pulled away. 3 very impressive races.
