Truth In Action, the Cantab Hall half-brother to 2006 U.S. Horse of the Year and Triple Crown winner Glidemaster, made his on-track debut on Saturday morning at Mohawk Racetrack for trainer-driver Blair Burgess.
In the ninth qualifier of the morning, Burgess had the $200,000 yearling purchase away sensibly in the pocket through fractions of :30.3 and 1:03.1 before uncorking a scintillating final half of :57.2 to hit the wire 12 lengths the best in 2:00.4. The top three finishers in the qualifier are all from the highly-anticipated first crop of millionaire Cantab Hall.
Truth In Action (Cantab Hall - Cressida Hanover) is co-owned by breeder Brittany Farms of Versailles, KY., Karin Olsson Burgess of Milton, Robert Burgess of Campbellville and the Truth In Action Partners of Versailles, KY.
