Papi Chulo & Eibar Coa winning the Birdstone at Belmont (Sarah K. Andrew)

Papi Chullo topped the weekend Beyers in the Birdstone with a 109. I loved his race. He was SO mismanaged prior to his recent private purchase by Winning Move Stables which placed him with Gary Contessa.

Since his turn of good fortune he’s gotten a 106 in a 70k optional claimer and now 109… and he finished 5 lengths in front of Hesanoldsalt (who I had wheeled on top of Papi Chullo. This was the beginning of my downfall).

I’m really looking forward to seeing what he’s got!
