WORLD RECORD (Gun Runner) in his second start for WinStar and BBN Racing going seven over Churchill's main track last May was certainly impressive when he won by 6 1/4 lengths. That effort garnered the colt 'TDN Rising Star' honors and the Rodolphe Brisset trainee proceeded to run third in the Maxfield Stakes over course and distance, and then he checked off the GII Amsterdam Stakes at the Spa in late July. Despite finishing sixth in the GI H. Allen Jerkens Memorial Stakes upstate, the bay cleared an optional claimer at Keeneland in October. To close out his year in late November, World Record hit the board in the Steel Valley Sprint Stakes at Mahoning Valley. Out of Marwa (GB) (Exceed And Excel {Aus}), the '21 $410,000 Keeneland November buy is part of an extended female family which includes sire Sir Cherokee (Cherokee Run) and MGSW Miss Isella (Silver Charm).
