Dynamite Charge, the first Stonestreet Stables colorbearer housed in the Doug O’Neill barn, was sent to post at a tick over 8-1 for this debut and was hustled away from the gate under Mario Gutierrez to vie for early control. Sticking a neck in front after a quarter-mile in :21.85, the big bay gradually went clear on the turn with ears pricked and spurted away when given her cue in the stretch, coming home 4 1/4 lengths in front while taken in hand late to become the latest ‘TDN Rising Star’. Adorable (Smart Strike), from Kaleem Shah and the Bob Baffert stable, was second. The winner’s dam is a half to MSW Grazettes Landing (Paynes Bay). She most recently produced a yearling colt by Soldat. Sales History: $105,000 Ylg ’15 KEESEP. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $33,600.
