HENDY WOODS (f, 3, Uncle Mo–Separate Forest {GSW, $206,525}, by Forestry), who RNA'd for $95,000 at the 2018 Keeneland September sale, forged to a 3/4-length victory in her unveiling over this trip and course Jan. 18. Sent off at 2-1, the bay filly sat off the pace while racing along the rail as Ginseng (Tiznow) took the field through fractions of :24.55 and :49.72. Tipped out at the top of the lane, she raced greenly but was still able to overtake the pacesetter to win going away by 1 1/2 lengths. Stonestreet Stables purchased Separate Forest, winner of the 2011 GIII Las Cienegas H., for $230,000 at the 2012 Keeneland January sale. Her Street Sense colt RNA'd for $22,000 at last year's Keeneland September Yearling Sale. She produced a colt by More Than Ready last year.
