The First Standardbred Gelding Of His Kind

Save America won sub-1:50 twice at age two, while finishing second in the Metro Pace and earning $440,639. He was a $300,000 yearling. You’d be crazy to geld this horse less than six weeks prior to the NA Cup, wouldn’t you? Nancy Takter and his ownership group sure didn’t think so, and when they discovered a new, innovative way that allowed them to do so, they did it. Now, the early returns show that they made a great choice. By Chris Lomon.
