Quality Road Filly Best in Salty Gulfstream Maiden

Boston Post Road | Lauren King

6th-Gulfstream, $40,000, Msw, 2-7, 3yo, f, 6f, 1:11.68, ft, 3 lengths.
BOSTON POST ROAD (f, 3, Quality Road–Lemon Bay, by Bernardini), whose one breeze available to view on XBTV was enough to conclude that she possessed some ability (4f, :50.60, 13/18, Video), was given a 3-1 chance facing a particularly well bred group of sophomore fillies Sunday. Away on top, the dark bay allowed a foe to take command but she kept that one honest through an opening quarter of :22.68 before poking a head in front into a :46.72 half. Pilot Paco Lopez gave several of his patented peeks back heading into the lane, and Boston Post Road responded willingly to his encouragement to hold off Mischiefful (Into Mischief) by three lengths. Bred just like these connections' GISW Dunbar Road (Quality Road), a Gulfstream debut romper herself, Boston Post Road is a full to Top Quality, SW & GSP-Can, MSW-USA, $139,704. She has a 2-year-old half-brother by Tiznow and dam Lemon Bay was bred back to Quality Road last term. The winner's second dam is GSW Sweet Fervor (Seeking the Gold), a half to MGSW Concerto (Chief's Crown), et al. Sales history: $525,000 Ylg '19 FTSAUG. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $24,000.
