LOPE DE VEGA show in Gr.1 Hollywood Derby

PROGRAM TRADING was much the best in last night's $300.000 Hollywood Derby at Del Mar and elegantly justified all expectations after entering the gates for the Gr.1 contest as the favourite. The three-year-old by LOPE DE VEGA came from sixth place when Flavien Prat asked him for more, and the colt, who is trained by Chad Brown for Klaravich Stables, charged for home with fervor to book the second Gr.1 win of his career.
Godolphin's SILVER KNOTT completed the success for sire LOPE DE VEGA with a formidable third place after leading the way and taking the field into the home straight.
