Kantharos Colt Romps at Tampa

Kantharos

World of Trouble stamped himself as one to watch with this jaw-dropping performance.

A 14-length debut winner for breeder Darsan Inc and trainer Kathleen O'Connell in a $25,000 seller in Hallandale Aug. 10, he finished a game second carrying Michael Dubb's colors for the first time in the seven-furlong FTBOA Florida Sire Affirmed S. Sept. 2. Well-supported in his first attempt for the Jason Servis barn off the bench here, he faced some early pressure through fractions of :22.51 and :44.91. World of Trouble began to let it out a notch on the far turn as jockey Antonio Gallardo took a peak in the rear view and he took off impressively down the lane to win for fun. Previously unbeaten He Hate Me (Algorithms), off since scoring in Belmont's Tremont S. June 9, completed the exacta.

The final time of 1:21.52 was .12 of a second off the track record set by Catalina Red in 2014. World of Trouble becomes the 13th stakes winner for Kantharos. The winner's dam had a colt by Kantharos last year and was bred back to The Big Beast.
