KINGSTON, Jamaica - For the second week in succession, trainer Anthony Nunes was able to saddle another debutante three-year-old winner, this time Easy Money.
The Sunshine N Shadow out of Midnight In Paris progeny, Easy Money, made it a gate-to-wire affair in a three-year-old maiden call going five furlongs round.
Easy Money shot from the number one barrier without any difficulties under the guidance of Shane Ellis, and although slowing a bit in the final furlong, enough had been done to secure the victory.
The final time was a slow 1:02.1 with splits of 24.3 x 49.0. Finishing second was Brahma Bull, to complete a one-two finish for Nunes. Never Despair was third.
