So do I.

Kaiserball is likely to be a (very) early favorite for the Oka Sho over a mile. Her dam won that race.
But Mirco Demuro commented after the race that the powerful filly, honest and handy, would get more distance, too.

Trained by Katsuhiko Sumii (Cesario, Epiphaneia etc), the sky is the limit for her!!

P.S.
Flawless Sky's rider was okay.

Thanks for the rider update, tachyon. And I have to say, Kaiserball reminds me a lot of Epiphaneia. It would be fantastic if she has talent like his (and her parents!).

Marking (Bernardini X Seventh Street) just won his debut impressively in the 3rd at Belmont, a MSW for 3yo and up. He may be late getting to the races, but it looks like Kieran and Godolphin have a nice one.

Bernardini's little 3/4 sister Pin Up just broke her maiden in an off turf event in Race 6 at Keeneland. She is by Tapit out of Cara Rafaela. Pin Up, by a grey stallion out of a grey mare, is chestnut.

She was 6th in that race, she tried but it was like she just couldn't grip enough- and that track has a funky type of layout.

She returns to Presque on the 6th in the H.P.B.A Stakes 1M $100K- would need a scratch to pull in

She does relish the course.

This one has such a clever name, I hope he can get some big wins someday.

Sam-Son Farm had an awesome weekend.
First time starter, Strut the Ring, out of Torreadora, a half sister to His Race To Win, broke his maiden very impressively in R10 at Woodbine.

I don't like the use of any "three quarter" terminology but we definitely can't use it here given how far removed AP Indy is on the stallion side.

In the KEE4 yesterday, you had the brother to Stardom Bound - Stardom Found - run in a MSW Turfer 1 3/16 miles. He finished 3rd.

Also in the race was Pennmarydel, Barbaro's full brother. Finished 6th
