LRE Racing and JEH Racing’s ageless Casa Creed (Jimmy Creed – Achalaya) captured Saratoga’s $500,000, Gr. I Fourstardave Handicap for the second straight year on Saturday and earned a berth in the gate for the 2023 Breeders’ Cup Mile.
Rating off the pace on the outside, Casa Creed went after the leaders turning for home, caught familiar foe Annapolis a sixteenth from home, and was best by three-quarters of a length at the wire. The 7-year-old son of Jimmy Creed, trained by Bill Mott, is a six-time Gr. I stakes-winner. He has compiled a 33-9-5-5 career record and earned $2,460,308 since his purchase for $15,000 out of the Janie Roper consignment at the 2017 OBS Winter Mixed Sale.
