Finish: 1st by 12

Stretch-out 3-year-old filly took advantage of soft pace to crush maidens in front-running fashion. Set pace without pressure, ambled along, romped. The sky is the limit, it appears.

Daily Racing Form has served as the most trusted source of news and information about the sport since 1894, and moving forward we have decided to provide a free daily playbook – something that both hardcore horseplayers and casual observers can reference to get informed of each day’s action.

RACE 4: MALIBU STAR (#5) 

It was a nice, if unusual, start of the year for BreezeFigs maidens—nice that both of our Pix hit the board, unusual because both parts of the entry at Aqueduct made up all the gimmicks and  very nice that our Santa Anita special, Queen of Thorns, blew the field away in a stunning performance that franked her 4-to-5 odds. There were eight other maiden winners during the week at Aqueduct, Gulfstream (two), Santa Anita (three others) and Tampa Bay (two), plus a lot of black type earned by logical horses.
