LOCKED secured his first Grade 1 victory when he captured the Claiborne Breeders’ Futurity (G1) at two before finishing third in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile (G1). At age three, he returned to defeat older competition in the Cigar Mile, defeating Grade 1 winners Book’em Danno and Mullikin.
LOCKED delivered his signature performance in the Santa Anita H. (G1), where he won by a record-setting 8 ½ lengths, the largest margin of victory in the race’s storied history. He earned a 109 Beyer Speed Figure in that effort, which was the co-highest of the year at 1 ¼ miles by an older horse.
LOCKED stands for $35,000 LFSN at Gainesway.
