Street Sense Colt Stretches Out Successfully at Keeneland

3rd-Keeneland, $109,550, Alw (NW1X), Opt. Clm ($100,000), 10-14, 2yo, 1 1/16m, 1:46.34, ft, 5 3/4 lengths.
STRETCH RIDE (c, 2, Street Sense–Q Go Girl {SP}, by Quality Road) handled his first two-turn attempt with aplomb, drawing away to win clear Saturday at Keeneland. Off at 9-1 having graduated with a late-running victory over six furlongs at Churchill Downs Sept. 17, the bay colt took up a position from between rivals as Astronomico (Frosted) set a quick early pace at the fence while odds-on Lightline (City of Light) was trapped out three deep through a half in :47.56. Stretch Ride was allowed to nose in front by Martin Chuan at the three-eighths marker and was scrubbed along, but was doing the better work inside of the chalk, who was doing his best to keep pace. Despite hanging on his incorrect lead for the length of the short stretch, Stretch Ride went away with each stride and had 5 3/4 lengths on Lightline–a big-figure debut winner at Horseshoe Indianapolis–at the wire. Seize the Grey (Arrogate), a latest fourth in the GIII Iroquois S., plugged on at one pace to be a non-threatening third. Purchased for just $5,000 at last year's Fasig-Tipton October sale, Stretch Ride made for a nice profit when hammering for €100,000 at this year's Arqana May breeze-up sale. Jackpot Ranch acquired Stretch Ride's dam for $147,000 at the Fasig-Tipton Horses of Racing Age sale in 2019 a short time after she finished third in the Panthers S. at Prairie Meadows. Stretch Ride is her first foal and is followed by a weanling colt by Yaupon. She was most recently covered by Street Sense's Grade I-winning son Speaker's Corner. oftlineSales history: $5,000 Ylg '22 FTKOCT; €100,000 2yo '23 ARQMAY. Lifetime Record: 2-2-0-0, $135,495.

Gun Runner Filly Passes Two-Turn Test at Keeneland

8th-Keeneland, $96,906, Msw, 10-13, 2yo, f, 1 1/16m, 1:47.33, ft, 3 1/2 lengths.
INTRICATE (f, 2, Gun Runner–Complex Analysis, by Distorted Humor) made belated progress to finish a never-nearer fifth, beaten just over two lengths, on six-furlong debut at Churchill Sept. 16, and was the 2-1 second choice stretching out to a distance of ground for the first time. Prominent through the opening exchanges, the chestnut eased back to sit midfield, but close, as they turned up the backstretch. Steered out into the four path entering the second bend, Intricate was held together passing the quarter pole, quickly raced up to the leaders once heads were turned for home and ran out a good-looking 3 1/2-length winner. A $200,000 KEESEP yearling and $280,000 OBS April breezer, Intrictate is the first foal from her dam, a full-sister to SW & GSP Abraham, who cost LBD Stable $180,000 carrying this filly at the 2020 Keeneland November sale. Complex Analysis is also the dam of a yearling colt by The Factor ($23,000 '23 KEEJAN; $65,000 '23 FTKJUL) and produced a Munnings colt this year before visiting Gun Runner's sire Candy Ride (Arg). This is also the family of graded performers Miss Isella and Sir Cherokee. Sales history: $200,000 Ylg '22 KEESEP; $280,000 2yo '23 OBSAPR. Lifetime Record: 2-1-0-0, $61,725.

Saturday Insights: Daughter Of Arrogate Debuts Over BAQ Turf

5th-BAQ, $90K, Msw, 2yo, f, 1 1/16mT, 2:44 p.m. ET
On Friday at the Belmont at the Big A meet, trainer Cherie DeVaux and co-owners Martin Schwartz and David Ingordo celebrated Reagan's Flame (Flameaway) coming home a winner over the turf in her first start.

Now Schwartz and DeVaux send PURLOIN (Arrogate) to the post looking for a similar outcome. A $200,000 Keeneland September purchase by Midnight Bloodstock, the gray filly went for $400,000 during the OBS April Sale with DeVaux signing the ticket after she went 10 2/5 during the under-tack show.

Other runners making their debut here include Cheyenne Stable homebred Style Points (Oscar Performance), who is out of GII New York S. heroine Mystical Star (Ghostzapper). The Christophe Clement trainee is also up against Public Assembly (More Than Ready), a $300,000 Keeneland September buy for Peter Brant and trainer Chad Brown. The chestnut filly's dam is a full-sister to two-time GIII Fred W. Hooper H. victor Csaba (Kitten's Joy).

Finally, Don Alberto homebred Lucevan La Stelle (Noble Mission {GB}), whose second dam is a full-sister to G1 Irish 2000 Guineas hero Henrythenavigator (Kingmambo), goes out for Tom Albertrani. TJCIS PPS

Daughter Of Flameaway Breaks Maiden At Belmont At The Big A

2nd-Belmont The Big A, $90,000, Msw, 10-13, 2yo, f, 6fT, 1:10.46, fm, head.
REAGAN'S FLAME (f, 2, Flameaway–Mizzen Donald, by Mizzen Mast), a 10-1 gamble on career debut, jumped away fairly, but was ridden along by Kendrick Carmouche to argue the early fractions inside of fellow firster Save Us Melania (Constitution). Shaking free from that one in upper stretch, the $185,000 OBS April breezer was clear into the final eighth of a mile and held on late to take it by a head. Favored Lamorna (Munnings), scratched out of last weekend's Futurity S. when it was washed onto the main track, was off slowly from the inside stall, was restrained at the tail of the field and let down powerfully in the lane to just miss. Twisted Romance (Twirling Candy), a $485,000 Fasig-Tipton Midlantic 2-year-old, turned in a promising first-out effort to be third. The 15th winner for her freshman sire (by Scat Daddy), Reagan's Flame has a yearling half-sister by First Samurai, a weanling half-brother by Street Boss and her dam visited War Front this season. This is the female family of E Dubai (Mr. Prospector). Sales history: $37,000 Ylg '22 KEEJAN; $35,000 Ylg '22 KEESEP; $185,000 2yo '23 OBSAPR. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $49,500.
