OCEANPORT, N.J. - Good and Lucky, debuting for trainer Michael Matz, rallied to edge a very game Actin Good by a half-length Saturday in the $70,000 Formal Gold Stakes at Monmouth Park.
Joe Bravo was aboard for his third winner of day, and meet-leading 16th stakes victory.
Good and Lucky ($9.20), in his first start since finishing fifth in the R.R.M. Carpenter Memorial Stakes at Delaware Park on July 18, trailed in the early stages as Actin Good set the pace under constant two- and three-horse pressure.
