Glutton Lassie | Horse Racing Free Tips

In this continuing series, Alan Carasso takes a look ahead at US-bred and/or conceived runners entered for the upcoming weekend at the tracks on the Japan Racing Association circuit, with a focus on pedigree and/or performance in the sales ring. Here are a pair of fillies by American Pharoah for this Saturday running at Hakodate and Hanshin Racecourses. Notable American-breds entered for action Sunday will appear in Saturday's TDN:

Saturday, June 18, 2022
3rd-HAK, ¥9,900,000 ($75k), Maiden, 3yo, 1000m
GLUTTON LASSIE (f, 3, American Pharoah–Brassy Lassie, by City Zip) was crunched into 7-10 favoritism for a 1400-meter Tokyo maiden last Nov. 20, but never landed a serious blow in seventh and makes her return to the races over the minimum trip Saturday. A $40K Keeneland September yearling, the February-foaled bay was knocked down for $350K at last year's OBS March Sale after breezing an eighth of a mile in :10 flat. Glutton Lassie is the only live foal to date for her dam, a half-sister to 2015 GIII Jefferson Cup S. winner Saham (Lemon Drop Kid). The filly's stakes-winning third dam Ticket to Houston (Houston) produced GSW/MGISP Runway Model (Petionville), the dam of four-time 'TDN Rising Star' Grade I winner and current Gainesway stallion McKinzie (Street Sense). B-Fleur de Lis Stable & Ashford Stud (KY)

8th-HSN, ¥14,670,000 ($111k), Allowance, 3yo/up, 1800m
CORDON ROUGE (f, 3, American Pharoah–Champagne Room, by Broken Vow) just failed at odds-on going this distance on Chukyo debut Mar. 13, but got it right last time, carrying the visiting Damian Lane to a popular four-length graduation at that same track and trip (see below, SC 10). The bay is the first foal from her dam, who secured an Eclipse Award with a victory in the 2016 GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies. Champagne Room's Japan-based 3-year-old half-brother Fidele (Jpn) (Kizuna {Jpn}) was third at Group 3 level last term and is listed-placed this season. B-Northern Farm (KY)

GLUTTON LASSIE (f, 2, American Pharoah–Brassy Lassie, by City Zip) cost $40K as a Keeneland September yearling last fall, but showed a good deal of improvement over the next six months and was hammered down for $350K at OBS March this spring after working an eighth of a mile in :10 flat. The February foal is out of a half-sister to GSW Saham (Lemon Drop Kid) and her third dam Ticket To Houston (Houston) produced MGSW/MGISP Runway Model (Petionville), the dam of 'TDN Rising Star', four-time GISW and Gainesway stallion McKinzie (Street Sense). Christophe Lemaire has accepted the call. B-Fleur De Lis Stable & Ashford Stud (KY)

5th-HSN, ¥13,400,000 ($117k), Newcomers, 2yo, 1400mT
SUGAR FLOAT (f, 2, Mohaymen–She's Gonna Float, by Horse Chestnut {SAf}) is out of a half-sister to GSW & GISP Wild Shot (Tapit) who was acquired by this breeder for $14,000 at the 2016 Fasig-Tipton February Sale. The May-foaled gray filly, whose year-older half-brother Where's Joey (Tapizar) wired a field of Parx maidens Oct. 25, counts GISW Preach (Mr. Prospector) as her third dam. The latter accounted for the late, influential Pulpit as well as the dam of SW/GISP Endless Chatter (First Samurai) and SW/G1SP Whitecliffsofdover (War Front). B-Hidaka Farm (KY)

8th-TOK, ¥21,000,000 ($184k), Allowance, 3yo/up, 2100m
CAREERISM (c, 3, Upstart–Out of Goodbyes, by Out of Place) was second in his first two career appearances before scoring by open lengths in early May and following up in allowance company three weeks later. He'll face older rivals for the first time here, including 5-year-old Danon Luster (Jpn) (Deep Impact {Jpn}), a son of GI Kentucky Oaks winner Princess of Sylmar (Majestic Warrior). An $85K Fasig-Tipton November weanling, Careerism was sold for $120K at FTKJUL in 2019 and made $200K at the 202 OBSMAR sale. B-Golden Pedigree LLC (KY)

9th-HSN, ¥19,110,000 ($167k), Allowance, 2yo, 1400mT
PER AA (f, 2, American Pharoah–Nomee, by City Zip) validated 12-5 favoritism in a 1400-meter newcomers' event over the adjacent dirt oval Oct. 23 (see below, SC 1) and looks to make it two-for-two with a switch to the grass this weekend. The $210K KEENOV weanling purchase is out of an unraced half-sister to MGSW Secret Gypsy (Sea of Secrets), who was sold to Japanese interests at KEEJAN in 2011 and is the dam of six winners from seven to race. Secret Gypsy passed away in 2019. B-Zayat Stables LLC (KY)
