HARRODSBURG (g, 3, Constitution–Gracer {MSW & GSP, $243,000}, by Exchange Rate), off a sharp work from the gate over at Belmont's training track Mar. 18 (.47, 1/123), vanned over to the 'Big A' for the real thing as the 3-1 third choice on the tote in this spot. Wrestling the lead away, the homebred sped down the backstretch, rounded the far turn in command by posting :45.86 for the first half-mile and extended his lead down the lane under a hand ride to win by 2 1/4 length over the late-charging Ocasek (Candy Ride {Arg}). The winner is a half-brother to Rome (Empire Maker), SW, $160,102. Sire Constitution's pairing with this dam also includes a 2-year-old colt named Revelation and she was bred back to him last year. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $44,000. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by TVG.
