Sum of Success scorched his competition with an 11 ½-length victory in the Aug. 10 In Summation S. at Gulfstream Park.
The 2-year-old Win Win Win colt has been overwhelming in both his career starts. In his debut maiden win on July 20, he tallied a 7 ½-length win in a five-furlong sprint.
Much like he did in the maiden win, Sum of Success went right to the front in Monday’s six-furlong affair, posting a quarter-mile of :22.06. It’s Smoking made a run at the pacesetter around the turn, but Sum of Success shook him off before the top of the stretch, then poured on down the lane to win with supreme ease in 1:10.14 on a fast track.
“They went at him a little bit and he was just playing,” trainer Bobby Dibona said. “What can I say? You dream about having a nice horse and I know what makes a great horse—a smart mind and they’re fast. I knew from the beginning this horse possessed those talents. He’s quite amazing. We really haven’t let him run. He hasn’t had to do anything. It’s pretty exciting to see what we’re going to do.”
An earner of $98,400 in two starts, Sum of Success is out of the In Summation mare All Summed Up. The winner is owned by K. Johnston Racing LLC, Michael & Jules Iavarone and Hopeless Stables and was bred in Florida by Oakleaf Farm.
Win Win Win is the sire of five stakes horses in 2026, including Nooni, who recently scored a comeback victory in a tough Ellis Park allowance for trainer Bob Baffert and Zedan Racing Stables.
