+STALLION HEIRESS (f, 2, Exchange Rate–Mendocino Beano {GSP}, by Smart Strike) made every pole a winning one in an impressive unveiling sprinting over the Fair Grounds lawn. Breaking sharply at 61-10, the $100,000 KEESEP buy went clear through a :22.10 quarter and got a bit of a breather by a half in :46.17. Odds-on favorite Cash In (Tapit), who was in tight at the rail on the turn, tipped out into the clear in early stretch, but was no match for the frontrunner, who sped away by the eighth pole en route to a four-length success. Aiken to Be (Aikenite) was second-best. The winner's third dam was MGSW/MGISP Trishyde (Nureyev). Her graded stakes-placed dam foaled a Broken Vow colt this spring before returning to the same sire. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $22,800. Click for the Equibase.com chart.
