Munnys Gold Dominates in Return

Munnys Gold | Ryan Thompson

8th-Gulfstream, $54,000, (S), Alw, 1-25, (NW1X), 3yo, f, 6f, 1:10.78, ft, 6 1/4 lengths.
MUNNYS GOLD (f, 3, Munnings–Haraawa, by Medaglia d'Oro), not seen since romping to a 14 1/2-length 'TDN Rising Star'-worthy debut at Monmouth Park last June, strode home the easiest of winners in her return to the races at Gulfstream Park Wednesday. Away a half-step slowly, the 1-9 favorite rushed up to press the pace down the backstretch and grabbed command as the quarter went up in :22.00. Three lengths in front through a half in :45.36, she sailed clear down the lane under a motionless Irad Ortiz to win by 6 1/4 lengths. Jolly Miss Jill (Handsome Mike) was second. A $92,000 FTKNOV weanling, Munnys Gold sold for $300,000 at the 2021 Fasig-Tipton July sale. Haraawa produced a filly by Frosted last year and was bred back to Game Winner.
