Racing for the same connections that bred, owned, and trained her leading young sire, RESOURCE (Gun Runner) makes her afternoon debut as a homebred for Winchell Thoroughbreds under the watchful eye of trainer Steve Asmussen. Out of a multiple stakes-winning mare in Remit (Tapit), herself a full-sister to MGSW/GISP Tapiture and SW/GSP Retap, the chestnut filly is a half-sister to both MGSW Finite (Munnings) and MSW/GSP Reride (Candy Ride {Arg}).
Opposing her is a pair from the outside gates led by Retrospect (Arrogate), a filly out of a half-sister to GISW Centre Court (Smart Strike) racing as a homebred for G Watts Humphrey Jr.
One more gate out is Frothy (Liam's Map), who brought a final bid of $420,000 from Lael Stables out of last year's OBS April Sale. TJCIS PPS
