Funfair made the game look easy with an impressive 3 1/2-length score in this salty Belmont maiden. Up to prompt Priscilla Marie (Bustin Stones) through a quick opening quarter in :22.13, the 3-1 chance overtook that rival under minimal encouragement by Julien Leparoux at the head of the stretch and strode clear under her motionless partner. Colorful Image (Ready's Image) rounded out the trifecta. Flueron is a half-sister to MGSP Dynever (Dynaformer), who finished runner-up in the G1 Dubai World Cup and third in the GI Breeders' Cup Classic; and Flagrant (Rahy), dam of GI Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile Furthest Land (Smart Strike). Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $42,000.
