Spooky Channel

Spooky Channel won two of his first four starts with two runner-up finishes before he made his stakes debut in the Turf Paradise Handicap in February 2019. He closed from off the pace to win that race by a head and two starts later added a win in the Wildcat Handicap in March at Turf Paradise. Om May 5, 2019, Spooky Channel extended his winning streak to five in a row with a neck win in the Hasta La Vista Handicap.

Spooky Channel’s winning streak came to a halt when he was unplaced in the Mystic Lake Mile Stakes in June at Canterbury Park and he closed his 4-year-old season with back-to-back unplaced finishes in graded stakes.

The English Channel gelding earned a breakthrough graded stakes win in his 5-year-old bow when he powered to victory in the Grade 3 W. L. McKnight Stakes on Jan. 25, 2020, at Gulfstream Park.

Spooky Channel raced five more times in 2020 and won an allowance optional claiming race at Churchill Downs but was unplaced in four graded stakes. But the gelding won his second stakes race in his first start at age 6, taking the Grade 3 John B. Connally Turf Cup at Sam Houston by a neck on Jan. 31, 2021.
