2011 Sebring Sprint (Theo Marks Stakes)

Master Of Design went out a $21 outsider but defied the odds, and beat a top field, with a superb front-running performance. The six-year-old looked in total control out in front and had enough gas in the tank to see off a determined Torio's Quest by half a neck while Fast Clip was not far back in third.
