Mucho Gusto Much the Best in Lewis

Sent off as the 1-2 favorite in the field of five sophomores, Michael Petersen's Mucho Gusto made short work of Saturday's G3 Robert B. Lewis Stakes at Santa Anita. The son of Mucho Macho Man, ridden by Joe Talamo for trainer Bob Baffert, splashed under the wire a 4 3/4-length winner to complete 1 1/16 miles over the sloppy course in 1:41.81. Mucho Gusto's win earned him 10 points on the Road to the Kentucky Derby, while runner-up Gunmetal Gray earned four points and third-pl

It's Official, Mucho Gusto is First Stakes Winner for Mucho Macho Man

Jumping from a maiden race to a graded stakes is difficult enough, but Michael Lund Petersen's Mucho Gusto didn't get any breaks in the $100,000 Bob Hope Stakes (G3), either. The Bob Baffert-trained Mucho Macho Man colt got squeezed a bit at the start of the seven-furlong dirt test Nov. 17, set a quick pace, and was still able to repel a two-pronged challenge in the turn to win by 1 1/2 lengths.
