Sumachahot wins Maryland Million Classic September 28th, 2009
Sumachahot rallied late to win the $200,000 Maryland Million Classic at the Jim McKay Maryland Million on Saturday.
The son of Mojave Moon has won six out of 10 races this year and was victorious in the Classic with a time of 1:50.26, ahead of the defending champion, Cuba. Regal Solo was third.
Broadway Producer finished fourth and missed a chance at becoming just the second horse in Maryland Million history to win the Classic and Turf in back-to-back years.
The event, founded in 1986, was officially named the Jim McKay Maryland Million earlier this year after a vote by the Maryland General Assembly.
