Mad House\u00a0|\u00a0SV Photography<\/p>\n

MAD HOUSE (g, 4, Vekoma\u2013Stifled Heiress, by Munnings<\/a>) was last seen fading to the back in the GI Breeders’ Cup Sprint at Del Mar last November, but before that he’d strung together a respectable tally of four consecutive victories which culminated with him taking home the hardware in the Sept. 20 GII Gallant Bob Stakes at Parx.<\/p>\n

Made the 3-5 heavy favorite here for his seasonal bow, Mad House went right to the front and never looked back after :21.94 and :44.42 sectionals, rolling home by 3 3\/4 lengths in a crisp 1:08.85\u2013only .18 off the 14-year-old track record. Dreaming of Kona (Fast Anna) was a well-beaten second.<\/p>\n

The victor is the most accomplished of his siblings as the second to the races and the only black-type earner, but his eldest half-sister is a winner. Stifled Heiress has a juvenile colt named Gaelic Legacy (Leinster) to her credit as well as a yearling full-brother to that one. She is due back to that stallion for a third time in 2026.<\/p>\n
