Pedigree

Fusaichiswonderful began her career in Puerto Rico, going undefeated from five starts, before suffering her first loss in her U.S. debut, the Grade 2 Forward Gal on January 26.

The chestnut daughter of Fusaichi Pegasus got back to her winning ways in the March 1 Primal Force at Gulfstream Park, taking that 6 1/2-furlong contest by 5 3/4 lengths.

Her sire racked up a number of wins in the beginning of his career as well, taking the San Felipe and Wood Memorial, both Grade 2s, before succeeding as the 2-1 favorite in the 2000 Kentucky Derby.

Fusaichi Pegasus raced just three more times, finishing second in the Preakness and taking the Grade 2 Jerome Handicap before concluding his career with a sixth-place run in the Breeders’ Cup Classic.

At stud, the bay has sired multiple champions internationally as well as Grade 1 winners Roman Ruler, Champ Pegasus and Bandini stateside.

Fusaichiswonderful’s dam is the unraced Dance Brightly mare Cry Baby and she comes from the same female family as track-record setter Stop the Music and Hatchet Man, both Grade 2 scorers.
