Grade I winner Dunbar Road (Quality Road) tops a short, but sweet field Sunday in the GII Beldame S. at Belmont. Winner of last year’s GI Alabama S., the bay finished off her sophomore season with a fifth in the GI Breeders’ Cup Distaff in November. She’s been perfect so far in 2020, capturing the Shawnee S. May 23 and won the GII Delaware H. last time July 11.
Letruska (Super Saver) started her career in Mexico, where she was undefeated. A two-time stakes winner at Gulfstream, the bay was fifth in Saratoga’s GI Ballerina S. Aug. 8, but went wire-to-wire in the GIII Shuvee S. there Aug. 30.
Grade II winner Point of Honor (Curlin) has been knocking at the door of a Grade I victory and her first score of 2020. Third in the GI Apple Blossom H. Apr 18, the chestnut missed by a nose in Belmont’s GI Ogden Phipps S. June 13 and was third in Saratoga’s GI Personal Ensign S. Aug. 1.
GIII Molly Pitcher S. victress Horologist (Gemologist) enters off a third behind champion Monomoy Girl (Tapizar) in the GI La Troienne S. at Churchill Sept. 4. Last, but not least is Nonna Madeline (Candy Ride {Arg}), who was second to Letruska in the Added Elegance S. at Gulfstream June 27. The bay won the Summer Colony S. at Saratoga Aug. 5 and was eighth last time in the Shuvee.
