DREAM MAESTRO DEFEATS DA' TARA IN STRETCH LONG DUEL

04/01/09 HOUSE

What an exciting race Dream Maestro ran in the feature race at Gulfstream on Wednesday. After rating in 5th place for 3/4, Jockey Manny Cruz circled around two horses to engage Da'Tara at the 1/4 pole. From there it was a head to head scrappy duel to the wire with Belmont Stakes winner Da' Tara. Both horses leaned on each other during the tough stretch battled. Dream Maestro and Manny Cruz  were not going to let the G1 Belmont Stakes winner beat them and they got to the wire a head in front.

Congratulations to Herb and Ione ELkins, owners of the very game and talented  "DREAM MAESTRO".
