Medaglia d'Oro Firster Scores For Pletcher At Monmouth

Medaglia d'Oro | Darley

2nd-MTH, $35,060, Msw, 6-18, 2yo, 5f, :59.33, ft.
+BRONSON (c, 2, Medaglia d'Oro–Cambiocorsa {MGSW, $522,055}, by Avenue of Flags) sported some sharp local breezes, most recently going a half-mile from the gate June 11 in :48 1/5, and was bet hard late to go off at 4-5 in this debut. Not breaking especially sharp, the gray was sent along the inside to move up to third heading into the turn and gradually made up ground on pacesetter Exclusive Package (Wildcat Heir) to draw on even terms under confident handling at the top of the stretch. The frontrunner fought gamely, but Bronson proved his superiority in the final sixteenth to score going away by 1 3/4 lengths. The winner is out of MGSW turf sprinter Cambiocorsa, who has also excelled as a broodmare, making him a half to Moulin de Mougin (Curlin), GSW, $313,660, Schiaparelli (Ghostzapper), GSW, $274,184, Alexis Tangier (Tiznow), MSW, $206,680 and Vionnet (Street Sense), GISP, $175,140. Cambiocorsa is responsible for a yearling filly by Ghostzapper and foaled a Distorted Humor colt this term. Sales History: $350,000 Ylg '15 KEESEP. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $20,520.
