Los Alamitos Two Million Futurity-G1
CYBER ATTACK
by Tracy Gantz
After the Champion of Champions-G1 on Dec. 10, owner Connie Rosenthal and trainer Christopher O’Dell were disappointed that Bomb Cyclone had finished fourth behind winner Empressum. But 24 hours later, his
full brother Cyber Attack made up for it by capturing the $1,857,225 Los Alamitos $2 Million Futurity-G1 on Dec. 11.
After qualifying the fastest for the Futurity on Nov. 20, Cyber Attack went off as the 3-5 favorite. Eduardo Nicasio, who has ridden Cyber Attack in each of his starts, was back aboard.
Cyber Attack wasted no time assuring his connections that they could head for the winner’s circle.
He pounced on the lead shortly after the break, led throughout the 400 yards, and scored by 3/4-length in :19.507. His clocking earned him a speed index of 98. The whopping $780,035 winner’s share of the purse boosted his bankroll to $1,151,917.
