Longview Drive
The son of Pulpit is traveling with Drill and Basmati on a flight from Southern California to Shreveport, Louisiana Wednesday morning before making the van ride to Vinton. Longview Drive would mark the first starter in the $1,000,000 Delta Downs Jackpot for Hall of Fame trainer Jerry Hollendorfer.

Sabercat
