Maine Chance's shuttle sire, Silvano, had a big day on Saturday
with Sabiango, his half brother, running out an impressive winner
of the Grade One Charles Whittingham Memorial Handicap.
Sabiango, already a dual Group One winner, was the second major
winner for his sire, recently retired, Acatenango. Blue Canari won
the French Derby for Acatenango a week earlier.
Sabiango won the ten furlong race by three parts of a length at
13-1. The entire is now trained by Bob Baffert. Now a six year old,
he is owned by Monty Roberts. He beat a solid field which included
the classic winning filly Musical Chimes and Hollywood Turf Cup
winner Continuously.
