The 5yo Hard Spun gelding covered *6 1/2 furlongs on the downhill turf in 1:10.88, just 0.36 seconds off the track record, and earned a career-best 115 Equibase Speed Figure!

Gas Me Up doesn't question your pre-race routine, so don't question his. 😂

We pulling for everyone in the @BreedersCup, but admit we're rooting for Ontario-breds Gas Me Up and Mission of Joy (both bred by Sam-Son Farm) a little bit more. 🤞
Both will race Saturday at @DelMarRacing, with Gas Me Up racing for Ontario trainer @kevin_attard#betontario
