Mucho Macho Man, one of only three thoroughbreds to run in all three Triple Crown races in 2011, will make his debut as a 4-year-old Saturday in Florida.
The horse with Suwanee-based owners is part of a select field that will participate in the $400,000 Florida Sunshine Millions Classic at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale, Fla.
Mucho Macho Man could have his hands full in the nine-furlong Classic, according to a report in the Daily Racing Form. Also expected is Adios Charlie, a winner earlier in the meet at Hallandale; speedy multiple stakes winner Turbo Compressor; and the multiple graded stakes winner Duke of Mischief.
