Gun Runner Wins 2018 Pegasus World Cup!

Saturday was the day. The running of the richest race in the world. That being the Pegasus World Cup. And this has been quite the year for the winning horse. Horse trainers across the planet will be looking to train harder to be in better position to win next year.

First of all, Gun Runner drew position number 10 in the starting gate at Gulfstream Park. Trained by Hall of Famer Steve Asmussen and ridden by jockey Florent Geroux, Gun Runner’s morning line odds were ⅘. He left the starting gate with odds of 1/1. The favorite took the victory with a 2 ½ length win at the Hallandale Beach, FL race track.
