LEGIT (c, 3, Curlin">Curlin–Logalina Pompina, by Corinthian) had work to do early, but came running late to score by himself first out at Gulfstream for Repole Stable and Todd Pletcher. Displaying an above-average worktab at Palm Beach Downs, capped by a half-mile gate move in :49 flat (5/26) Apr. 13, the $125,000 Keeneland September graduate came away well from his rail draw as the 17-10 second choice, but was shuffled back to travel in a clear fourth behind fractions of :23.76 and :46.12. After being worked on for at least a furlong by Tyler Gaffalione, the chestnut came alive three-eighths from home, swooped up alongside favored Crafty Jack (Trajectory) nearing the straightaway and burst clear soon thereafter to graduate by 7 1/4 lengths. Crafty Jack was clear for second, ahead of $435,000 firster Our Honor (Union Rags). The winner is the first foal out of an unraced half-sister to GSW/GISP Mellow Fellow (Belek) and SW/MGSP Zawzooth (Unbridled's Song). Logalina Pompina foaled a colt by Lea last term before visiting Will Take Charge. Sales History: $65,000 Wlg '15 KEENOV. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $27,600.
