A quartet of juveniles tied for fastest time for an eighth of a mile during the third and final session of the breeze show for the Fasig-Tipton Midlantic sale of 2-year-olds in training Thursday, stopping the clock in 10 seconds.

At the end of the three-day breeze show, 13 horses were tied for the fastest time at one furlong. The juveniles breezed on the five-eighths dirt track at the Maryland State Fairgrounds in Timonium.

Following are the four horses who tied for the fastest furlong on Thursday.

• Hip 79, Smart Response, a Smart Strike filly out of the stakes-winning Cozzene mare Salty Response, whose two foals to race are both winners. Salty Response is herself a half-sister to multiple Grade 3 winner Salty Strike, by Smart Strike, and the extended family includes Japanese Group 3 winner Eishin Lombard. Hartley/de Renzo Thoroughbreds consigns Smart Response as agent.

• Hip 388, a Curlin colt out of the winning Stormin Fever mare Franscat, whose seven foals to race are all winners, including stakes winners Swinger's Party and Hubba Shake, and Grade 3 winner Powhatan County.
