Adding to the good news from a great week for Kenwood Racing, Big Apple Brit got an absolutely picture perfect ride by jockey Taylor Connor and took full advantage of it, scooting through a big hole on the rail at the top of the stretch to win in hand at 8 to 1 odds at Penn National on January 16th, his final start before being sold at the Fasig-Tipton sale in Maryland on January 31st. Kudos to trainer Mark Salvaggio for having him fit and ready off a 7 week layoff. Brit beat a solid group for the level, with Kenwood co-owner David Lowrey, who he is named to honor, on hand to cheer him into the winner’s circle.  In over two years of racing, all under Kenwood silks since being purchased at the OBS April sale in 2014, Big Apple Brit gave us many thrills and winner's circle photos, with a lifetime record of 36 starts, 6 wins, 7 seconds and 5 thirds and earnings over $82,000 to date. He competed mostly in lower level claiming races, but was one of our soundest and most hard-trying runners, who gave it his all every time and was as solid as they come. We wish his new owners great luck with him and we have told them he always has a safe home with us, when his racing days are over.
