Description:
Captain Cook looked the part of a Triple Crown contender as he posted a 2 1/4-length victory in the $250,000 Withers Stakes, a 1 1/8-mile test for 3-year-olds Feb. 1 at Aqueduct Racetrack. He overcame a wide trip and repelled a stretch bid from 33-1 longshot Surfside Moon to capture the Withers in his stakes debut.
