GOODGIRL BADHABITS (f, 3, Mastery–Dazzler, by Vindication), the 11-10 favorite for this unveiling on the back of four speedy works over this surface–including a five-furlong bullet in 1:00 flat Mar. 1–never gave them a chance. Blinkered and speeding to the lead after breaking only fairly, the filly put up :22.58 and :46.32 splits from the rail and was seven lengths ahead with three-sixteenths of a mile to race. She continued to build on that advantage while not asked for her best and reported home 12 3/4 lengths to the good of fellow firster and 32-1 longshot Run Around Slew (Practical Joke). The half-sister to GII Louisiana Derby placegetter Dazzling Gem (Misremembered), SW-PR, MGSP-USA, $508,303 was the second dominant winner on the card for her conditioner, who also sent out 9 1/2-length maiden breaker Uncle Jake (Uncle Mo) in the opener before adding a third winner later in the program. Goodgirl Badhabits, whose deeper female family includes the legendary Serena's Song (Rahy), also has a stakes-winning half-sister in Rose to Fame (Gemologist), who is represented by a yearling Mastery colt. Dazzler is the dam of a 2-year-old Palace Malice filly that fetched $110,000 at KEESEP last fall and a yearling filly by Global Campaign. Their dam is due to Knicks Go for this season.
