In his next start following the Eddie Read, Catapult once again rallied from midpack and, after moving off of the rail at the top of the stretch and finding racing room, he outfinished runner-up Fly to Mars (who was subsequently placed third) to tally his second consecutive graded stakes win in the Grade 2 Del Mar Mile Handicap. Catapult followed with a strong performance in the Breeders’ Cup Mile, rallying to challenge for the lead in deep stretch only to come up just short while running second to Expert Eye.
