DROP DEAD SEXY (f, 2, Unified–Half a Notion, by Half Ours) became the sixth winner for her freshman sire (by Candy Ride {Arg}) with a dominant debut display. Bet into 49-10 from a morning line of 6-1, the $15,000 KEESEP yearling was driven through by Alexander Castillo to take up the running after a furlong and led narrowly into the turn with three pursuing her from the outside. She began to assert five-sixteenths of a mile from home and widened through the stretch and score by an imposing margin. From the family of MGSW Isotherm (Lonhro {Aus}), Drop Dead Sexy has a yearling half-brother by Sassacaia (Bernardini) and her dam was most recently bred to Catalina Red (Munnings). Sales history: $15,000 Ylg '20 KEESEP. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $13,200. Click for the Equibase.com chart.
