Flash Tour became Flashstorm's 16th winner from just 33 starters in 2016 with an attention-getting six-furlong performance at Mountaineer Casino and Resort on Sunday night. Making his career debut at odds of 6-1 under Eddie Jurado, the 3-year-old gelding bred by Northwest Stud broke sharply from the No. 6 post, then battled head-and-head for the lead down the backstretch and into the turn. He cruised into the lead in mid-stretch and drew off without the need of urging to score by 2 1/4 lengths. Flash Tour collected $8,178 of the $14,100 purse in the maiden special test and based on the professional way he handled his debut, appears to be headed for even better days.
