March (Blame x Lifeinthefastlane), the winner of today's G2 Woody Stephens, is a half brother to Eightyfiveinafifty.

Both brothers won the Bay Shore in their respective years, and Eightyfiveinafifty also ran in the Woody Stephens in 2010, but finished 5th :D

Isn't there anything more epic out there? Even "Valentina" would be better.

Enchanting Lisa (War Chant), half sister to two time Horse of the Year Wise Dan, rounded out the superfecta in an allowance/optional claiming in Race 8 at Churchill Downs. Sent off as the post-time favorite, she looked poised to take command at the top of the stretch but could not sustain her run.

Samantha Nicole (Medaglia d’oro—Lotta Kim, by Roar), 4-yr-old full sister to 2009 Horse of the Year Rachel Alexandra, is entered MTO in Race 6 at Belmont Park on Saturday, June 13.

I was looking forward to her turf debut until I realized she was entered main track only.

She was a fast closing 2nd. She actually looked pretty good.
