With Gary Stevens riding, Candy Boy wins the Robert B. Lewis on Saturday.
Grade 2, $200,000 Robert B. Lewis Stakes, 1 1/16 miles, Santa Anita, Feb. 8
(10 Kentucky Derby eligibility points to the winner, 4 for second, 2 for third, 1 for fourth)
This was an important mid-winter test for highly regarded, lightly raced prospects for the Santa Anita Derby on April 5 and possibly the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs May 3.
Candy Boy, who had finished second to 2-year-old champion Shared Belief in the 2013 CashCall Futurity Dec. 14, made an impressive 3-year-old debut in this race.
