No secret on the board as the betting public poured into him to the tune of $1.65-1 favoritism, I'm Very Busy (c, 2, Cloud Computing–Two Kisses, by Kissin Kris) was given the most confident of confident steers by Flavien Prat and finished like a freight train to garner the 'TDN Rising Star' badge on career debut in the Saturday opener from Saratoga.
Taken hold of soon after the start, the $50,000 Fasig-Tipton Midlantic Yearling turned $135,000 OBS March breezer (:10 2/5) lagged back with just two rivals behind him for the opening couple of furlongs as longshot Lord of the Navy (Lord Nelson) showed the way through a half in :49.17. Creeping closer while being nursed along three-eighths of a mile from home, I'm Very Busy was finally cut loose by the Frenchman in upper stretch, and the Pennsylvania-bred had so much wind in his sails that he could have gone outside or in and the outcome would likely have been the same. When the daylight appeared one off the fence in upper stretch, I'm Very Busy leveled out beautifully, raced up to 11-1 Baie Longue (American Pharoah) and raced clear for a decisive 3 3/4-length victory. He covered his final 2 1/2 furlongs in a very slick :28.80, his final sixteenth of a mile in a spectacular :5.60 while never asked for his very best, then galloped out powerfully around the turn.
I'm Very Busy is the third winner for his freshman sire (by Maclean's Music), who gave trainer Chad Brown his first Classic in the 2017 GI Preakness S. A half-brother to Grand Kisses (Grand Reward), SW, $157,286, I'm Very Busy is out of a full-sister to SW Kiss Me Twice and a half to Answer Lively (Lively One), winner of the 1998 GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile en route to champion 2-year-old male honors.
