Earning over $1.2 million on the racetrack, this dam certainly took to Oaklawn's course, as she netted a pair of black-types there and never finished worse than second over six attempts. Also set for...

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. - After having his picture taken with debuting Early Adoptor (GB) Lope de Vega (IRE)) following the second race Saturday, trainer Chad Brown promptly dropped names and words of praise. "My assistant, Luis Cabrera, at Monmouth, I want to give him a lot of credit," Brown said. "He had this horse all summer. He was rained out at Monmouth a couple weeks ago and he says, 'you know, boss this is probably a Saratoga-level horse. Go ahead and try him up there.' And he was right." Indeed....
