Father Love showed great improvement under talented Emisael Jaramillo in his second career start at Gulfstream Park on Thursday, going wire-to-wire at five furlongs over the turf course. The 3-year-old colt by Gone Astray set a sizzling pace - :21.78 for the quarter and :45.10 for the half - and continued on for a one-half length victory over 8/5 favorite Twistcat Candy in :57.22. Father Love's maiden score was worth $10,400 as he not only became his sire's 20th winner of the year, he lifted Gone Astray to within less than $11,000 of reaching $500,000 in progeny earnings.
