+CALL TO MIND (GB) (c, 3, Galileo {Ire}–Memory {Ire} {MGSW-Eng, $127,136}, by Danehill Dancer {Ire}) soon raced under cover in the second rank and remained there through halfway in this first go. Shaken up with three furlongs remaining, the 6-4 chalk made headway into contention approaching the final eighth and was ridden out to deny Commander (GB) (Frankel {GB}) by a neck nearing the line. Najashee (Ire) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}), a half-brother to Ectot (GB) (Hurricane Run {Ire}) and Most Improved (Ire) (Lawman {Fr}), recovered from an awkward start and was not unduly punished in the closing stages, finishing eighth of nine. The Queen's homebred bay becomes the second scorer, from as many foals to race, produced by G2 Cherry Hinton S. and G3 Albany S. winner Memory (Ire) (Danehill Dancer {Ire}), and is a full-brother to G3 Acomb S. hero Recorder (GB) (Galileo {Ire}). He is also kin to the 2-year-old colt Learn By Heart (GB) (Frankel {GB}) and a yearling colt by Galileo (Ire). His dam is a half-sister to G3 Tyros S. victress Remember Alexander (GB) (Teofilo {Ire}), from a family which includes MGSW GI Jockey Club Gold Cup runner-up Generous Rosi (GB) (Generous {Ire}). Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $6,630. Video, sponsored by Fasig-Tipton.
