Fast Pass, a 7-year-old gelding, rallied along the inside under Miguel Vasquez and beat Mucho by a neck in the $48,000 allowance. It was the 12th victory in the 43rd career start for Fast Pass. He ran 6 1/2 furlongs in 1:15.66 and earned a career-best 96 Beyer Speed Figure.
“The more I looked at the race, the more I realized it was going to be a speed setup for him,” Walder said. “But he’s never come up the inside like that before, never. That was what was pleasantly surprising.”
Walder said he had no idea what might be next for Fast Pass, though he would like to keep him at Gulfstream, if possible.
“I prefer to keep him home, but if there’s not something, I think he can take his talents elsewhere,” Walder said.
