Silks and Media:

Strengths: Exits a late-charging victory in the Grade 3 Sycamore Stakes at Keeneland, showing he can handle the 1-1/2 mile trip against that level of competition. Consistently outruns his odds as an under-looked performer, and his trainer has a long reputation for marathon grass routers.

Weaknesses: His class will be seriously tested in his first attempt at the Grade 1 level. He owns just 1 career graded stakes victory from 5 attempts.

In The Genes: Sire, Formal Gold, was one of the all-time Monmouth greats on the main track and multiple Grade 1 winner. Glenney has bred and raced six runners from the bluehen mare Moondust Mink, including multiple graded stakes winner Kim Loves Bucky.

Bet You Didn’t Know: Transduction Gold is owned, trained and co-bred by John and Kim Glenney.
