Speaking of Synchrony (Tapit x Brownie Points), he runs Saturday in the Red Bank (gr. IIIT) at Monmouth. Among those he'll face are Irish Strait, the half-brother to Irish War Cry.

Also on Saturday is a very contentious edition of the Prioress (gr. I) at the Spa. Keep an eye out for Dream Pauline (Tapit x Dream Rush), who is 2-for-2 to start her career.

Hystericalady was a nice mare, and one I enjoyed following. Nice to see one of her land a graded stakes. Has Lady Montdore ever started on dirt?

Lah Ti Dar returned off a 109-day layoff to win a listed stakes at York last week by 10 lengths and remain undefeated. Today, her 2yo full brother Too Darn Hot won the Solario S (G3) and is now one of the early favorites for the Derby. Dar Re Mi has now produced three stakes winners, all by Dubawi.

3yo colt Midi (Frankel-Midday) won a novice stakes at Newcastle yesterday.

Scratched with a fever.

Graceful Princess, the daughter of Tapit and the great Havre de Grace, will make her debut in the upcoming 4th at Saratoga, a 7-furlong MSW on the dirt for 2yo fillies.
ETA: This race is loaded with well-bred fillies, like #1 Dance Club (Candy Ride x Storm Flag Flying) and #8 Wild Moment (MdO x She Be Wild).

Sometimes that 'breed the best to the best and hope for the best' actually works. :D
Graceful Princess went to the front and stayed there. Was pulling away in the stretch with her ears pricked.
She's a beautiful horse, a tall leggy bay who looks like her dam.

The upcoming 7th at Saratoga, a split of the 4th, has another bunch of well-bred fillies, including the Pioneerof the Nile daughter Positive Spirit. She's out of Above Perfection, making her a half to Always Dreaming and Hot Dixie Chick.

The Dubawi over Singspiel mares cross is an insanely good. 10 Stakes winners from 30 foals of racing age (33%).

Ship of the Line (Red Rocks), the 2YO colt o/o Fiji (GB), broke his maiden Sunday at Ellis Park in Race 7. He was previously 3rd on debut in a race on the Arlington Million card. Her most successful offspring to date is the Group 1-placed Marcus Andronicus (Danehill). She has a yearling colt by Oxbow, who I believe is her last foal.
