Dave Litfin|Nov 24, 2015

TALE OF MIST
Trainer: Barclay Tagg
Last race: Nov. 22, 6th
Finish: 3rd by 7 3/4
Beyer: 74
Racing with Lasix for the first time, this second-time starter turned in an improved effort in the faster division of a one-mile maiden special weight for 2-year-olds.

MORSE CODE
Trainer: Shug McGaughey
Last race: Nov. 20, 9th
Finish: 2nd by 1 3/4
Beyer: 68
Evoked memories of his older half-brother Honor Code’s debut, as he found best stride belatedly and finished strongly to nip heavily favored Rally Cry for the runner-up spot in a promising effort.

MEWANNAROSE
Trainer: Chris Englehart
Last race: Nov. 18, 8th
Finish: 5th by 4 1/4
Beyer: 90
Making his second start back from a layoff, he broke from the rail and stumbled badly at the start, chased the pace to the stretch and weakened in a high-end optional claiming sprint. Ran his lifetime top Beyer (103) on the inner dirt last winter.
