Monmouth Park Barn Notes for Thursday, August 30, 2012

GET SERIOUS READY FOR SATURDAY’S GRADE 3 CLIFFHANGER

He may be the one of the fans’ favorite horses on the Monmouth Park grounds and his connections think that Get Serious will give them a seriously good run for their money in Saturday’s Grade 3 $100,000 Cliffhanger Stakes.

The 8-year-old gelded son of City Zip out of the Java Gold mare Java Gal loves both the Monmouth turf course and the one-mile distance of the race. In a career that has seen him win 14 of 38 starts and earn $1,113,091, eight of Get Serious’s victories have come in stakes races here and five of those have been grade 3 affairs.
