PARTY POLITICS
by Tracy Gantz
Party Politics scored another big stakes win in the $1,060,250 Golden State Million Futurity-G1 at Los Alamitos on Oct. 30. Fastest-qualifier Cyber Attack went off as
the odds-on favorite in the Golden State final, with Party Politics the 5-1 third choice. Ramon Sanchez has ridden Party Politics in every race except his first one, and he was back aboard.
Party Politics broke first from the outside post position, but Cyber Attack quickly took over the lead at first call. Just when it looked like Cyber Attack would get to the wire first, Party Politics put on a burst of speed and caught the favorite at the wire by a nose. Running 400 yards, he stopped the timer
in :19.797 and posted a 91 speed index. The whopping $445,305 winner’s share of the purse boosted his bankroll to $858,905.

Party Politics winning the $1,060,250 Golden State Million Futurity-G1 at Los Alamitos.
