Trainer Pedro Garcia.
Trainer Pedro Garcia saddled No Commission ($8.20) for a late-rallying victory on Saturday’s program at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Fla., to register his first success in the U.S.
The 34-year-old Venezuelan native immigrated to South Florida two months ago along with his father Pedro Garcia.
“This is a new beginning,” Garcia said. “The racetrack is very competitive. It’s a great experience.
Garcia claimed No Commission out of a second-place finish for $6,250 shortly after arriving and reaped immediate success when the 3-year-old pulled away to a three-length score in a 5 ½-furlong $6,250 claimer carded as Race 5. No Commission was claimed out of the race.
“I have two horses right now, but I think it’s only one at this moment,” Garcia said.
