Post: 7/9/2016 17:40 at SA
It’s always exciting to see a new batch of 2YOs spread their wings and compete at stakes level. It’s also very hard to predict what will happen when the gates open. Five of these fillies broke their maidens first out. Only one has as many as two starts to her credit. And there’s even one making her debut at this level.
Here’s the field:
1 Peppermint Puff
Owner/Breeder: Allinthegate
Sire: Peppermint Moon
Dam: Puffy McDuffy (Poet Laureate)
Broke her maiden at TUP last out against 6 rivals and a hard-fought stretch battle.
2 Peppermint
Owner: Mb Stables
Breeder: Night Mare Racing
Sire: Winter Warrior
Dam: Salt N Pepper (Charley Farley)
No relation here. Also broke her maiden last out going 2 furlongs at GG wire-to-wire in a field of 10.
3 Charm
Owner/Breeder: Night Mare Racing
Sire: Kavorka
Dam: Glamoured (Pink Panther)
Came from off the pace to break her maiden at SA.
4 Majestic Nikki
Owner/Breeder: Timeless Inc.
Sire: Majestic
Dam: Bronclore (Dashing Bronco)
Finished 2nd in her debut at PEN. Works aren’t as fast as most in this field.
5 Kantela Soil
Owner/Breeder: Waldo
Sire: Farley Farley Farley
Dam: Alexander Ridge (Red Riojas)
Maiden winner at PRX coming from off the pace to win by a neck.
6 Killer Angels
Owner/Breeder: TwinTowersRacing
Sire: Calling The Gods
Dam: Highway Witch (Highway 66)
The only entrant with as many as two starts. Also broke her maiden first out at PRX. Tried stakes company last out in the $200.000 Astoria. Even though she finished well up the track, that experience makes her the one to watch.
7 El Gran Flora
Owner: John Henry
Breeder: Pan Farms
First start for this filly. Tough place to debut.
