R1 #3 campaign (5-1) msw $130k 1½ miles
ran 2nd on a sloppy track at saratoga last year in his debut as a 2yo.. didn't resurface again till july at ellis park and did little in that race.. considering this guy is a 675k yearling purchase by curlin and out of a dynaformer mare (very stout and classy) they'd probably rather win here for $130k purse than take down less than ⅓ of that at ellis park (not to mention a ho-hum achievement winning there).. breaking your maiden at 1½ miles on the turf a special accomplishment and have a hunch they've been pointing towards this all along
R2 #5 i am miss brown (8-1)
< R3 #1 fifth title (5-1)
< R3 #6 spikes shirl (15-1)
< same race
R4 #11 cash out (7-2)
R5 #8 convict (10-1)
