Awesome Gem
A late bloomer like many of Awesome Again's progeny, Awesome Gem did not debut until his three-year-old season. He was well worth the wait as we learned that this gelding could do anything we asked of him. With his explosive closing rallies, he won a graded stake on the dirt and placed in a graded stake on the turf. He excels at all distances and has become a top horse on the southern California racing circuit. With such versatility and talent, he is a racing stable's dream.
Terry Finley:
"Awesome Gem became our first Breeders' Cup placed horse. He is also our first millionaire. When we expanded our operation to southern California, we were committed to becoming one of the leading owners on the west coast. We have, and Awesome Gem is responsible for helping us make that goal a reality."
Trainer Craig Dollase:
"Awesome Gem has plenty of personality, and he does whatever we ask him to do. He makes a trainer's job easy. I can run him almost any distance on any surface and know he will represent us well."
