Flute | Horse Racing Free Tips

It did not take long for the action to get going during Book 2's opening session Wednesday with Hip 383, a colt by sensational young sire Gun Runner, summoning $1.05 million just minutes into the session. He was purchased by the powerhouse partnership headed by SF, Starlight and Madaket Stables with SF's Tom Ryan doing his bidding on the phone. Bred by Ann Fostock, the Feb. 2 foal was consigned by Pope McLean's Crestwood Farm. The bay hails from a deep Juddmonte family with his second dam being MGISW Flute.

Havre de Grace (Saint Liam)'s fourth foal to the races will be unveiled in this spot in the form of 3-year-old Saint Tapit (Tapit), a full-sibling to GIII Molly Pitcher S. victress Graceful Princess. From four others to race, including a half-brother by War Front, all are winners. The Whisper Hill Farm homebred has a steady line of works for Todd Pletcher, including most recently a four furlong move in :48.81 over the main track June 19. To Saint Tapit's immediate outside is $300,000 KEESEP Juddmonte purchase Mount Craig (Arrogate), bred by W S Farish and in the barn of Bill Mott. Mount Craig claims Good Magic (Curlin) in his female line. Breaking to the far outside of the group will be well-bred Flute Master (Gun Runner), a colt out of a Juddmonte-bred daughter of their GI Kentucky Oaks heroine Flute (Seattle Slew). That one produced MGISP Filimbi (Mizzen Mast) and the dam of GSW Current (Curlin) and GISW Weep No Moe (Mineshaft). Steve Asmussen will send Flute Master to post for owners Almost Heaven Stables.
