In one regard, Cathkin Peak is the most popular runner in Saturday’s Grade 3 San Francisco Mile at Golden Gate Fields.
The 6-year-old, a stakes winner way back in 2020, has been claimed for $80,000 in his last two starts at Santa Anita, the most recent of which was a win in an allowance race at 1 1/8 miles on turf on March 24.
Owner Steve Moger, the brother of trainer Ed Moger, Jr., has followed Cathkin Peak’s career and saw the gelding as a suitable claim.
