ARDEN'S ASSAULT (f, 3, Violence–Can't Explain {SW & GSP, $219,809}, by Not For Love), debuted to be third when routing in a rained-off event Mar. 18 at the Fair Grounds, made the trek to Keeneland and entered the gate Thursday with added blinkers as the 2-1 choice in a tightly-bunched wagering field. Pushed for speed early by Luis Saez, she stormed to the front along the rail and was never challenged through a half in :46.04. In a one-horse race from the far turn on, Arden's Assault cruised home under a mild hand ride to break her maiden by a widening 11 lengths. Fast N Happy (Runhappy) was the best of the rest in second. Can't Explain, herself a full-sister to GSW Together Indy and MSP Cee Bee Gee Gee, traces back to GSW & MGISP Acting Happy (Empire Maker) and MGSW Go Google Yourself (Into Mischief). Her now 2-year-old Mendelssohn filly brought a final bid of $175,000 as a yearling at Keeneland September last fall and she foaled a colt by Kantharos this spring.
