DEAN'S LIST (c, 2, Speightstown–Mildly Offensive {MSW, $285,826}, by Sharp Humor) drifted out from odds-on to be the 6-5 post-time second choice, but graduated with honors. Heavily favored before being overtaken late in the wagering by Positive Review (Unified), a big-figure second on his course-and-distance debut Oct. 16, Dean's List showed first from his outside gate and took the sit from second as fellow firster Felix (Cupid) showed the way at the inside through a swift opening quarter in :21.70. Traveling nicely in hand on the turn, Dean's List hit the front approaching the five-sixteenths pole, and although he refused to swap his leads, drew clear with every stride to take it by 5 1/2 lengths. Felix just held off a belated bid from 4-5 Positive Review to complete the exacta. The third winner from four to race out of his dual stakes-winning dam, Dean's List is out of a daughter of MGSW It's Personal (Personal Flag), herself the dam of MGSW It's No Joke (Distorted Humor) and SW Keep Laughing (Distorted Humor). The winner's dam is also represented by a Carpe Diem colt of 2020. Sales history: $220,000 RNA Ylg '20 FTKSEL. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $31,800.
