5th-FG, $40k, Msw, 2yo, f, 1m1/16T, 3:56 p.m.
The GI Juddmonte Spinster S. winner Mushka (Empire Maker) will see her fifth expensive foal named WHENTHEDAWNBREAKS make a career debut against a full field of maidens going long on the turf. A $370,000 Keeneland September yearling last year, the bulk of this Brad Cox trainee's works have been over the synthetic at Turfway Park, and at a five-furlong breeze. Mushka changed hands several times over the years for big numbers: $1.6 million as a 2006 Saratoga yearling from Zayat Stables, $2.4 million from Brushwood Stables in 2008 during Keeneland November, and $650,000 from SF Bloodstock and Newgate Farm at the 2016 Keeneland November sale. Her progeny sold just as well as yearlings, include Heyaarat (Empire Maker) for $1.65 million from the Shadwell Estate at 2012 Keeneland September, and Crowned (Bernardini) for $1.2 million going the way of John Ferguson at 2014 Keeneland September. Ifurhappynuknowit ( Bernardini) sold last year at Keeneland November for $320,000 to Repole Stables, and Follow the Flag (Tapit) went the way of Skara Glen Stables for $675,000 at 2017 Keeneland November.
