Quality Road | Sarah Andrew

6th-Tampa Bay Downs, $24,000, Msw, 2-19, 3yo, 1mT, 1:36.33, fm, 1 1/4 lengths.
SILVER PEAK (c, 3, Quality Road–Dreamologist {GSW, $203,710}, by Tapit) debuted over the synthetic track at Woodbine Nov. 13 and got up to be second when traveling 6 1/2 furlongs. Given the stretch out and the change of surface Sunday, the gray jumped from the blocks as the narrow 7-5 second choice and dove to the front to lead narrowly into the first turn. Showing the way through opening fractions of :23.63 and :48.85, Silver Peak held his position up the backstretch as Life At Sea (West Coast) stayed a length off of him in second. The top pair stayed one-two as they swung past the quarter pole with Silver Peak maintaining his advantage down the stretch, keeping Life At Sea at bay to win by 1 1/4 lengths. Out of GIII Las Cienegas S. winner Dreamologist-herself a daughter of champion 2-year-old filly Dreaming of Anna (Rahy) and half-sister to GISP & sire Fast Anna (Medaglia d'Oro)-Silver Peak's third dam is a half-sister to champion grass horse and leading sire Kitten's Joy (El Prado {Ire}). Silver Peak has a yearling half-brother by Curlin while Dreamologist visited leading general sire Into Mischief for a 2023 foal. Lifetime Record: 2-1-1-0, $25,166.
