$100.000 Ungraded for LA-bred Two-Year-Olds
5 ½ Furlongs Dirt
Post: 7/16/2016 19:30 at EVD

Brilliant Man and The Great Bonsai have met before here at EVD. The outcome? The Great Bonsai got to the wire a length in front of Brilliant Man. Next start, Brilliant Man broke his maiden at LAD. Will Brilliant Man turn the tables this time? Comoros won his maiden last out but he’s running on dirt for the first time. And even though Double Diamond Daddy is still a maiden, anything can happen when two-year-olds face off this time of year.

 1 Brilliant Man
Owner: Royal Racing
Breeder: Team 7 Illusions
Sire: Brilliantly Awkward
Dam: Manheim Road (HRP-Claro)

Two career starts, both in LA-bred company. Broke his maiden last out in May at LAD.

2 Comoros
Owner/Breeder: Team 7 Illusions
Sire: Walkin Dead
Dam: Balle Orange (Generalmajor)

Just one start for this colt, but that was enough to give him his first win. That was on turf. Switches to dirt for this his stakes debut.

 3 The Great Bonsai
Owner/Breeder: Allinthegate
Sire: Bonsai
Dam: Magnificent Belle (Five Daddy Five)

One start and one win for this gelding as well. Broke his maiden here at EVD in front running style.

 4 Double Diamond Daddy
Owner/Breeder: Court Jester Racing
Sire: Diamond Daddy
Dam: Alatheia (Zeus)

Still a maiden after 2 starts. Switches from Lasix to blinkers. May not be enough to compete against these.
