Ppk5/8 - San Remos Kosmos A Winner Again
The path along the comeback trail finally lead to the winner's circle for veteran trotting gelding San Remo Kosmos on the January 18 program at Pompano. With Bruce Ranger at the lines for his third winner on the card, San Remo Kosmos topped a $7,000 purse conditioned group of rivals in 1:56.3 for his first win in more than three years.
The S J's Photo-Sissy De 9 year old gelding hadn't raced since February of 2009 before turning in the top Pompano barn of trainer Peter Pellegrino last December for the ownership of Baron Stable of Horsham, PA. The 28-time career winner of over $617,000 took his life's mark of 1:52.3 at The Meadowlands in 2007 just before a third place finish in that year's Nat Ray Memorial. San Remo Kosmos was developed in Pennsylvania's Fair Circuit by Todd Schadel, Roger Hammer and Rodney Bolon before racing against the continent's best from 2007-2009 from the care of Mark Silva, Ben Wallace and Jimmy Takter.
