HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. – One or even two stakes victories might not have been sufficient to prove that Thewayiam has been the best 3-year-old turf filly in action this winter at Gulfstream Park. But after a third straight stakes triumph Saturday in the 31st running of the Grade 3, $100,000 Herecomesthebride, it’s time to stop denying the filly her due. “She has won three stakes already this year,” said Jose Ortiz, who never left the inner rail in guiding Thewayiam to a 1 3/4-length score in the Herecomesthebride. “She’s a pretty amazing filly.” Favored at 3-2 in a field of eight, Thewayiam was ahead of only one rival with a half-mile left in the 1 1/16-mile Herecomesthebride. But then she began making up ground, and when Ortiz spied an opportunity to shoot her up the rail when front-running My Favorite Gift floated out after turning for home, the issue was quickly settled. “She has a great turn of foot,” said Ortiz. Trained by Graham Motion for a four-way partnership that includes prominent New York owner Michael Dubb, who helped lead the filly into the winner’s circle afterward, Thewayiam is a French-bred who now has won 4 of 5 starts in the U.S. since being imported from her native country last summer. She returned $5 after finishing in 1:41.41 over a firm course. She earned an 84 Beyer Speed Figure. Amertume, well-placed from the start under John Velazquez, fought off Brattata for the place spot in a tight photo, with Princess Warrior rallying belatedly to finish another 1 1/4 lengths behind them in fourth. Thewayiam becomes an obvious candidate to attempt a sweep of the four divisional races at this championship meet by running back in the Sanibel Island on the March 31 Florida Derby undercard. The Herecomesthebride followed the Jan. 6 Ginger Brew and Feb. 3 Sweetest Chant. The $2 exacta (3-5) paid $16.20, the $1 trifecta (3-5-4) returned $21.50, and the 10-cent superfecta (3-5-4-1) was worth $5.78.
