Momentum continues to build for Doc Sullivan, a multiple stakes-winning son of Solomini, as connections remain hopeful he’ll earn a spot in the starting gate for the $3 million Pegasus World Cup at Gulfstream Park.

Currently listed as a reserve invitee, Doc Sullivan has put together a resume that makes a compelling case. Trained by John Ortiz, the durable runner has proven himself against quality competition, showing consistency, toughness, and the ability to perform at the graded-stakes level. His connections have indicated that if an opening becomes available, the colt would ship to Florida with the goal of competing in one of North America’s premier dirt races.

For McMahon of Saratoga Thoroughbreds, Doc Sullivan’s success underscores the growing impact of Solomini as a sire. From his first crops, Solomini has shown an ability to pass on class, soundness, and versatility — traits that continue to translate into results on the racetrack. Seeing one of his sons on the doorstep of a race like the Pegasus World Cup is another important milestone for the young stallion’s career.
