Copper Sunrise first winner for freshman sire Eavesdropper

Posted: Saturday, June 21, 2008 8:53 PM

Copper Sunrise led at every call to win by 2 3/4 lengths in a maiden special weight race at Canterbury Park on Saturday and become the first career winner for freshman sire Eavesdropper.

Copper Sunrise, who is out of the stakes-winning Lac Ouimet mare Near Silver, was hustled to the lead, repelled a rival’s bid in the stretch, and pulled away under steady urging to win the five-furlong race in 1:00.55 on a track rated as fast for owner R.E.V. Racing and trainer Valorie Lund.

Eavesdropper, an eight-year-old by Kingmambo out of the Secretariat mare Weekend Surprise, stands for $7,500 at Walmac Farm in Lexington. A half brother to 1992 Horse of the Year and leading sire A.P. Indy and 1990 Preakness Stakes (G1) winner Summer Squall, Eavesdropper has 53 two-year-olds in his first crop.

Eavesdropper won three of 16 starts and earned $167,794 in three racing seasons. He won the 2004 Harvey Arneault Memorial Handicap at Mountaineer Park and finished third that year in the Fall Highweight Handicap (G3).
