2YO colt won at first asking on April 12th, leading every step of the way and winning well within himself by 3 lengths over the second place finisher and another 11 lengths back to the field
Ran a 9 on Thoroughmanager, an 82 E-Figure and a 17+ Ragozin
How fast is a 9 on Thoroughmanager? Faster than the 11 2YO Champion CLASSIC EMPIRE ran in his 4.5F debut!
The start of Mensa's career is eerily similar to that of Breeders' Cup Juvenile winner CLASSIC EMPIRE.
Both trained by Mark Casse and both broke their maidens at 4.5F. But Mensa did it faster than CLASSIC EMPIRE!
Mensa is entered in the $250,000 Kentucky Juvenile Stakes at Churchill Downs on Thursday, May 2nd.
New owner will be able to run in their silks for the Kentucky Juvenile.
Mark Casse will be trainer of record if new owner decides to run in the Kentucky Juvenile.
The horse can be moved to a different trainer after the race.
New owner has no obligation to run in the Kentucky Juvenile.
Mensa is by Complexity, a first out winner at 2 and a Grade One winner at 2 in the Champagne Stakes.
Brought $135,000 as an OBS October Yearling, the highest price for Complexity and 3rd highest price overall in the sale.
Mensa is a half-sibling to two stakes horses that broke their maidens at 2 and were stakes winners or stakes placed at 2.
RECRUITER: Undefeated in three starts at 2 and a stakes winner at 2 and 3.
Miss Sayely: A winner and stakes placed at 2. Currently in training and ran 4th last out in a stakes race at Tampa.
