The promising 2-year-old maiden Hurricane Nelson already has a new home.
Though owner-breeder-trainer Gustavo Delgado planned to enter the Florida-bred son of Khozan in the upcoming Fasig-Tipton Horses of Racing Age Digital Sale, he has worked out a private sale to owner Dean Reeves, who has sent the colt to trainer Christophe Clement.
Clement said he would monitor Hurricane Nelson for a few days before deciding on plans for him.
Hurricane Nelson, out of the Political Force mare French Politics, finished second by a half-length at 24-1 odds in an Aug. 12 maiden special weight race at Saratoga Race Course won by Deterministic. Bought for $625,000 as a yearling, Deterministic is trained by Clement and owned by St. Elias Stable, Ken Langone, Steven Duncker, and Vicarage Stable.
