Thieves Guild steals the show in Caress Stakes
Medaglia d'Oro is certainly soaking up the Spa this this year, currently leading all sires by winners at Saratoga, adding an eighth winner to the list August 2 as Thieves Guild blew them away in the Caress Stakes.
In the 1100m turf sprint Thieves Guild traveled along the outside, tracking in second. Midstretch the four-year-old mare showed a burst of energy, flying to take over the lead and posting a commanding win just shy of the track record.
On the up, Thieves Guild is now two-for-two in 2015, after an impressive three-length Allowance win at Belmont in June. Out of multiple Stakes winner and Graded-placed mare Gilded Gold, Thieves Gold was bred by B. Flay Thoroughbreds, Barry Weisbord, Robert & Joan Masterson.
Thieves Guild marks the second Stakes winner on the weekend for Medaglia d'Oro after daughter Miss Double d'Oro proved much the best in the Wine Country Stakes just one day prior.
Medaglia d'Oro is standing this season at Kelvinside at a fee of $110,000 inc. GST.
