‘Unbelievable horse’ rallies to win Hollywood Turf Cup at Del Mar
DEL MAR — Trainer Jonathan Thomas has become the marathon man of Del Mar.
For the second straight week, Thomas scored a second straight victory in a marathon turf race at the seaside oval.
Saturday, Thomas’ 9-5 favorite Truly Quality pulled away in the stretch to win the Grade 2, 1½-mile Hollywood Turf Cup under fall meeting riding sensation Mirco Demuro. Last week, Thomas’ Mrs. Astor scored a second straight victory in the 1 3/8-mile Red Carpet Stakes. Augustin Stables
