Juddmonte’s Accede A Winner On Debut At Gulfstream

7th-Gulfstream, $71,400, Msw, 3-16, 3yo/up, f/m, 6f, 1:10.67, ft, 1 1/2 lengths.
ACCEDE (f, 3, Into Mischief–Jibboom {MGSW & GISP, $487,600}, by Mizzen Mast), the 7-5 favorite for her career bow, broke with the front flight but was outsprinted for the lead by Snow Princess (Quality Road). Two wide between rivals into the far turn, she was able to tip inside as the field swung past the quarter pole and make a sustained run against the rail to clear off with a furlong to run. Maerdama (Girvin), another first-time starter, chased her home but was 1 1/2 lengths back of the winner. Jibboom, already the dam of Flying Jib (GB) (Oasis Dream {GB}), GSW-Ire, $135,114, is herself a full-sister to G1 Stewards' Cup winner Sea Defence and to the dam of GISW Gold Phoenix (Ire) (Belardo {Ire}). Afer losing her Into Mischief foal in 2021, Jibboom was not bred for 2022 but foaled a colt by Tacitus this year. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $42,000.

English Channel’s Far Bridge Earns ‘Rising Star’ Nod at Gulfstream

Calumet Farm's unbeaten homebred Far Bridge (c, 3, English Channel–Fitpitcher, by Kitten's Joy) kicked home impressively for 'TDN Rising Star' honors in a grassy optional claimer at Gulfstream Park Saturday.

The bay was a head better than the promising Carl Spackler (Ire) (Lope de Vega {Ire}) over the same course and distance on debut Jan. 21. Carl Spackler returned to earn a 'Rising Star' tag of his own with a smashing, 8 3/4-length maiden victory here Feb. 25.

Hammered down to 1-2 here, Far Bridge raced under cover passing the grandstand for the first time. He was in no hurry racing toward the rear through an opening quarter in :22.99 and had his work cut out for him entering the far turn. All dressed up with nowhere to run at the top of the stretch, he knifed his way through rivals in the stretch and unleashed an explosive turn of foot to score by 3 1/2 lengths over Harry Time (Ire) (Harry Angel {Ire}).

This is the second 'Rising Star' for the late, perennial leading turf sire English Channel. The English Channel over Kitten's Joy cross is also responsible for GISW Channel Cat; MGSW Spooky Channel; Canadian champion 2-year-old colt, GSW & MGISP Admiralty Pier; and GSW English Bee.

Far Bridge is the most recent produce for winning Calumet homebred Fitpticher, who died in 2021.

9th-Gulfstream, $72,000, Alw (NW1X)/Opt. Clm ($75,000), 3-11, 3yo, 1 1/16mT, 1:41.14, fm, 3 1/2 lengths.
