Sharp debut from 3-year-old Cal-bred filly. Bet to even-money, shot to lead, opened up, cruised. Would be contender if runs back April 4 in $200k Evening Jewel Stakes.

Comeback maiden, first time two turns, 3-year-old ran well. Saved ground throughout, finished willingly, galloped out with run. Promising colt tough in next maiden route.
YENG AGAIN
Trainer: Richard Baltas
Last race: March 15, 1st
Finish: 4th by 7 1/2

Second-start maiden 3-year-old wanted no part of route, wanted no part of being rated. Pulled while pressing three wide, never relaxed, sputtered. Follow when returns to sprint.
