LA MARINERA (f, 2, Instilled Regard–Curlin Supreme, by Curlin) is the first winner for her first-crop sire (by Arch) out of 50 foals of racing age. The filly was a runner-up on debut at Keeneland Apr. 26 and she finished in the same position in an off-the-turf maiden at Horseshoe Indy May 14. Taking on the boys as a 10-1 shot here, the bay sat just off of Coming in Hot (Maclean's Music) up the backstretch. The 2-year-old was ready to rumble around the far turn and she grabbed the lead en route to splashing home a 1 1/4-length winner over Strummin (Flameaway). La Marinera is her dam's first to the races and last registered foal. Out of MSW Tin Top Cat (Supreme Cat), Curlin Supreme visited Enticed for this season.
