Freshman Sire Catholic Boy Gets His First Winner

Lady d'Oro (Catholic Boy) is freshman sire Catholic Boy's first winner with her grass victory at Monmouth Park on Sunday afternoon. The filly was 49-1 in her debut when she finished sixth over a sealed track June 16 at the New Jersey track.

Still overlooked at the windows at 14-1 here, the bay filly avoided Momma Kim (Noble Mission {GB})'s fall, who stumbled up the backstretch after clipping heels with Gold Alliance (Goldencents), which also caused Bingo's Girl (Yoshida {Jpn}) to go down. Rounding the far turn, Lady d'Oro made up ground into the stretch and wrangling Gold Alliance past the eighth pole, she went on to graduate by 3/4 length over the late-running Madame Mischief. Gold Alliance was disqualified from third and placed last for interference entering the turn.

Following the race, Bingo's Girl and Momma Kim walked off under their own power. Jockey Samy Camacho, who was aboard Bingo's Girl, was sent to Monmouth Medical Center in Long Branch by ambulance for evaluation X-rays following a spill, according to track Medical Director Angelo Chinnici. Camacho, the track's second-leading rider with 29 wins, was excused from the remainder of his mounts on the 10-race card. Jockey Jorge Gonzalez, who was aboard Momma Kim, reported no injuries.

The winner's dam is responsible for a yearling filly by Instagrand and she foaled a colt by Good Magic Feb. 11.

The 9-5 favorite Rowsie Express (Golden Lad) followed that one in for minor awards.
