3rd-Churchill Downs, $122,250, Msw, 10-29, 2yo, f, 6f, 1:11.83, sy, 1 length.
COASTAL INVASION (f, 2, Omaha Beach–Intelyhente, by Smart Strike) went off favored at even money and broke right to the front to show the way through a :21.97 opening quarter over the slop. Kept off the rail in the clear, she took on a challenge from eventual runner up Blue Squall (Tapwrit) at the top of the lane and dueled that rival into defeat close to home to graduate at first asking by a length. A $700,000 OBSAPR 2-year-old, Coastal Invasion is the 18th winner for her freshman sire (by War Front). Intelyhente had a colt by War of Will this year and returned to that same stallion for 2024. Sales History: $200,000 Ylg '22 KEESEP; $700,000 2yo '23 OBSAPR. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $69,000. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by FanDuel TV.

COASTAL INVASION ($4.04) fought back when Blue Squall challenged her in @ChurchillDowns race 3. Nice ride by @flothejock on this Omaha Beach (@spendthriftfarm) filly for trainer @bradcoxracing.
