IN THEORY (f, 3, Mendelssohn–Lady Hansen {SP}, by Hansen) was sent right out for the early lead under Juan Hernandez and took control from She's No Angel (Street Sense) through a :21.89 opening quarter. As that rival faded, the 1-2 favorite pulled away handily and turned for home alone on the lead, cruising under a hand ride to win under wraps by three lengths over Queen of Naples (Hard Spun). An $800,000 2-year-old buy out of the Fasig-Tipton Midlantic Sale last year, In Theory has a pair of half-sisters by Vekoma while her dam was bred to Speaker's Corner for a 2024 foal. Sales History: $125,000 Ylg '22 KEESEP; $800,000 2yo '23 EASMAY. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $39,000. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by FanDuel TV.
