A swing and a miss for The Green Card on this one as Gormley, from the Royalty Stables, makes it two in a row and her first stakes score, running away from them in deep stretch to take The Memories of Silver by two widening lengths, while stopping the clock at 1:33.62 for the flat mile on the inner turf, here at AQU. She won two in a row early in her career, and repeats while stamping herself as a nice young filly to watch this summer. First Royal was forwardly placed throughout, as well, but just had no answer for the eventual winner down the lane, taking the second spot by a quarter-length over Jaime in third, then another length to Repartee who grabbed the minor money. Six lengths covered the field of six.
