Cairo Cat debuted as a grass route prospect when eighth in a MSW on opening weekend at the Spa, then was entered back on the lawn and upset an off-the-turf rainout at 18-1 odds going seven-eighths over a “good” main track. Perhaps thinking he was better intended as a turfer, bettors let him go at 17-1 in the Sep. 15 Iroquois S. at Churchill Downs, and this $130,000 FTKJUL Cairo Prince colt kicked from tenth along the rail before angling off the fence to gun down the all-out fave for a half-length win. He's currently readying for a 2019 campaign at Payson Park with no comeback race publicly announced.
