Double Neat (Oscar Performance x Cocktail Hour) was a tough winner of the Fourth race at Ellis Park on Monday – a victory that secured a shared Training Title with Steve Asmussen.
The three-year old gelding stalked the pace in a nice rhythm under jockey Edgar Morales through the first six furlongs of the one and one sixteenth mile event. He sustained a continuous run down the stretch to reach the leaders inside the final furlong and held off an opponent on the outside to secure victory by a neck.
The win topped off a fantastic Ellis Park meet for the team at Brendan Walsh Racing.
