Olympiad wins an Oct. 14 allowance at Keeneland

Coady Photography Olympiad has earned big Beyer Speed Figures in his two starts as a 3-year-old.

LEXINGTON, Ky. – Olympiad earned a big Beyer Speed Figure for a second straight race when he held off Milliken to win a first-level allowance here Thursday, getting seven furlongs in a quick 1:21.92 with Flavien Prat up. He was given a Beyer of 98 and paid $3.80..

In his previous start, Olympiad, a 3-year-old Speightstown colt, got a 105 when second to Baby Yoda in a Sept. 4 allowance at Saratoga when returning from a one-year layoff.

Assuming the colt stays on this circuit with Kenny McCarthy, the local assistant to trainer Bill Mott, there is only one sprint stakes at the upcoming Churchill Downs fall meet – the Nov. 6 Bet On Sunshine, which also is open to older horses. Otherwise, Olympiad could show up next in a second-level allowance at Churchill or elsewhere. He is owned by the partnership of Grandview Equine, Cheyenne Stables, and LNJ Foxwoods.
