South Carolina bred Skiptothegoodpart sets three track records

Four-Board Stable’s Skiptothegoodpart set a track record at his third different racetrack in 2006 with a victory at Turfway Park on September 29.  Skiptothegoodpart was bred in South Carolina by Camden Stud, LLC and Skipaway, LLC.  He is by Skipaway out of the Salt Lake mare Cally.

The five-year-old gelding trained by William Denzik Jr. rallied inside the sixteenth pole under Randall Toups to win the five-furlong starter allowance race by a head.  The chestnut runner stopped the clock in 57.23 seconds, which bettered Turfway’s previous track record (58.81) for the distance by more than 1 ½ seconds.

The track record was the third for Skiptothegoodpart from just five starts this year.  The previous two were both on turf-Indiana Downs (56.54) on May 9th and River Downs(56.00) on June 18th.  The race at Turfway was on the new PolyTrack surface.

“Skiptothegoodpart is a neat little horse who’s been a lot of fun this year,” said Jim Cullen, President of Four-Board Stable.  “He has his quirks: he can’t take a lot of pounding, and he’s not the hardiest horse you’ll find.  But he seems to put all those problems behind him when he hits the track, and he fires every time.  He just loves to run and we are all very proud of what he’s accomplished.  I don’t know how many horses have set track records at three tracks in one year but there can’s be too many.”

The SCTOBA congratulates and wishes continued success for South Carolina bred Skiptothegoodpart.
