Created a great impression when winning debut despite traffic problems. The Chad Brown trainee then showed terrific heart to come back at Mo Donegal in the Remsen S. (G2), and only narrowly failed to take the honors. The $170,000 Keeneland September Yearling Sale purchase is by graded stakes winner Upstart out of the Creative Cause mare Memories Prevail and comes from the family of graded stakes winners Hello Liberty, Significant Form, and Hay Dakota. Could be tested by 1 1/4 miles but looks a good prospect.
