UNTITLED (c, 3, Khozan–Cindy Says, by Elusive Quality) dismantled a field of state-bred juveniles by 11 lengths on debut Dec. 14 (98 Beyer) for Brent Fernung and Mike Sebastian after which Gary Barber purchased a majority interest, with Sebastian retaining a small piece. Fourth as the 7-5 favorite behind Mischievious Alex (Into Mischief) in the GIII Swale S. Feb. 1, the bay was a sound second to 'TDN Rising Star' Gouverneur Morris (Constitution) in a two-turn Tampa allowance Feb. 14 and was most recently seen rounding out the exacta underneath his Swale conqueror in the one-mile GIII Withers S. at Aqueduct Mar. 7. Prohibitively favored here at a dime on the dollar, Untitled set a strong pace in advance of his chief market rival Roman Empire (Empire Maker), had his three rivals hard at it on the turn and galloped home an unextended 3 3/4-length winner. Tag horse Gray Beau (Imperialism) completed the exacta. “He broke perfect. He was right there and it was like another work for him,” winning jockey Luis Saez said. “It was pretty easy. He came to the stretch and he took off. I had so much horse. He felt very good. He was sharp today. He felt amazing.” The dam of Untitled's 2-year-old full-brother Aw Heck, Cindy Says–a half to MGSW turfer Cloud Scapes (Smart Strike)–produced a filly by Mo Tom in 2019. Third dam Missed the Wedding (Blushing Groom {Fr}) was a half-sister to champion Chris Evert and produced GISW Missed the Storm (Storm Cat) and MGSW Green Means Go (Green Dancer).
