Social Inclusion Gets First Winner at Gulfstream
Social Exclusion (Social Inclusion) became the first winner for her freshman sire (by Pioneerof the Nile) Wednesday at Gulfstream. Overlooked at 10-1 in this unveiling, the bay broke on top and was shadowed by Gem Thief (Shanghai Bobby) through a sharp first quarter in :21.29. Showing the way into the lane on a clear lead, Social Exclusion powered home to a 4 3/4-length success. Kay’s Project (Jack Milton) was second and Gem Thief faded to third.
Social Inclusion won three of his nine starts with his claim to fame being his 10-length defeat of future MGISW Honor Code (A.P. Indy) in a Gulfstream allowance when that champion was returning from a layoff. Third both the GI Wood Memorial S. and GI Preakness S. in 2014, Social Inclusion now stands at Diamond B Farm in Mohrsville, Pennsylvania.
