I thought Tito’s Calling would come charging.” Jim’s Hope ($14.80) graduated in his 12th start on Sept. 3 and became a stakes winner just three races later in the 1 1/16-mile Lake Ontario for Ontario-sired male 3-year-olds. With Sahin Civaci riding, Jim’s Hope came wide from a stalking position to assume command in the stretch and then held off the favored Rapid Test to prevail by 1 1/2 lengths, in a time of 1:45.25. Souped Up finished another neck back in third in the seven-horse field. “I wasn’t given any instructions,” Civaci said. “The further he goes, the better he gets. In post parade, I had good confidence in him, and his body language just spoke out to me. He was really comfortable and he felt like a nice horse. I ended up in a really nice spot. He’s such a long-striding horse and I felt the pace was going a little slow, so I took him outside and let him stride out his legs under me, and he just finished up really well.”   By Ami’s Holiday, Jim’s Hope earned $60,000 for the partnership of trainer Paul Buttigieg and Jimmy Goodman. :: Want to learn more about handicapping and wagering?
