SOCIETY (f, 3, Gun Runner–Etiquette, by Tapit) graduated by a length on debut Oct. 21 at Keeneland for prior trainer Wayne Mackey and was given a 7-2 chance with first-time Lasix in this return to action. Away well, the homebred sped out to take control, zipping through a swift first quarter in :21.92. Showing the way into the lane, the chestnut was confronted by SP Ontheonesandtwos (Jimmy Creed) in the lane, but determinedly held off that foe for a 1 3.4-length score. Society is Gun Runner (by Candy Ride {Arg})'s 43rd runner to get her picture taken. Etiquette, a half to GISP Pleasant Prince (Indy King), also has a 2-year-old colt by Union Rags named Punctuality and a yearling filly named Finesse (Street Sense). She's expecting a 2022 foal by Omaha Beach this season. This is the family of course-record setter and graded-stakes producer My Marchesa (Stately Don), who is the granddam of Canadian champion 3-year-old filly Holy Helena (Ghostzapper) and GSW-turned-sire Holy Boss (Street Boss). Lifetime Record: 2-2-0-0, $123,820. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by TVG.
