INGLEWOOD, Calif. - Two hours after Medaglia d'Oro was narrowly beaten in the Belmont Stakes, trainer Bobby Frankel found a minor consolation when Megahertz rallied in the stretch to win the $164,050 Honeymoon Breeders' Cup Handicap at Hollywood Park.
Stuck behind fillies until midstretch, Megahertz made up two lengths in final sixteenth to deny Arabic Song by three-quarters of a length. Ridden by Patrick Valenzuela for owner Michael Bello, Megahertz ($4.60) ran 1 1-8 miles on turf in 1:51.97.
Frankel watched from the tack room at his Belmont Park stable.
