Degree Of Risk (by Cairo Prince), dropping down to the $10,000 claiming level, returned to the winner’s circle thanks to a remarkable ride by jockey José Torrealba, who managed to best Anamnestic (by Bucchero) in a tight finish.
The key was the Venezuelan jockey’s relentless drive; he moved the gray horse wide of his rivals, and in the final stretch—a showdown between a seasoned professional and an apprentice—it was a done deal. Trained by Nolan Ramsey for the colors of his grandfather, Kenneth Ramsey, the son of Cairo Prince secured his fourth career win this afternoon, clocking 1:40.64 for a mile and 70 yards on the Gulfstream Park Tapeta track. This marked the 70th victory of the current season for Ramsey.
