Finish: 2nd by 1/2
Beyer: 83
Came with a nice late run in her 3-year-old debut to close the gap on her talented stablemate Elysea’s World, who was heavily favored in her first start since arriving from France; first career start at Saratoga last summer was a deceptively good effort while racing greenly after a slow start.

Beyer: 90
Hard-hitting older horse had tended to need one off the layoff, and he appeared to get in a perfect prep while contesting the pace and getting clear in the stretch before getting closed down late by a trio of lightly raced 4-year-olds who may all be heading to graded stakes.
