Third Street (Yoshida {Jpn}), co-owned by Shawn Davis and Bill Carnes and trained by Davis, became the first winner for his freshman sire with a romping 7 1/4-length victory at Lone Star Park Tuesday night. The bay gelding, who was fifth over a sloppy track in his five-furlong debut June 8, was sent off at 6-1 while adding an extra half-furlong in this second outing. He went straight to the early lead and took the field through fractions of :22.22 and :45.87. He extended his advantage into the lane and sailed home an easy winner. Pure Malice (Palace Malice) was second.
Third Street was bred by Bryon Henderson, who purchased the gelding's dam, Abbey Street, with the winner in utero for $13,000 at the 2021 Keeneland January sale. The mare is a half-sister to Grade I winner Wicked Strong (Hard Spun).
Winner of the 2018 GI Woodward S., Yoshida stands at WinStar Farm for a fee of $10,000.
