  • Catholic Boy Rewards Connections' Faith in Travers
    SUNDAY, AUGUST 26, 2018 CATHOLIC BOY REWARDS ABEL TASMAN OUT-SLUGS ELATE IN PERSONAL ENSIGN By Christie DeBernardis CONNECTIONS’ FAITH SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y.--It was deja vu all over again for champion Abel Tasman (Quality Road) and ‘TDN Rising Star’ IN TRAVERS Elate (Medaglia d’Oro) in the GI Personal Ensign S. at Saratoga Saturday, a “Win and You’re In” event for the GI Breeders’ Cup Distaff. Last year, the pair battled down the Saratoga stretch in a thrilling renewal of the GI CCA Oaks with Abel Tasman besting Elate by a head and surviving an objection by Elate’s jockey Jose Ortiz. The Personal Ensign turned into a replay of the two talented fillies’ last meeting, objection and all, with the China Horse Club and Clearsky Farm’s Abel Tasman coming out on top yet again. The filly and mare feature was billed as a match race between the best in the west and the best in the east and Abel Tasman, favored at 3-5, and Elate, 9-5 second-choice, put on the show everyone expected.
