+BRICKS AND MORTAR (c, 3, Giant's Causeway–Beyond the Waves {SW & MGSP-Fr & GSP-US, $187,752}, by Ocean Crest) produced a strong stretch kick and graduated first out at Gulfstream for Klaravich and Chad Brown. Coming in off a modest worktab, the $200,000 KEESEP buy was let go at 6-1 and settled in sixth behind a moderate pace of :24.10 and :49.49. Creeping up into contention past the three-eighths pole, the dark bay was fanned five-wide into the stretch, but kept his momentum and rolled by the pace players at the eighth pole, kicking clear to a 1 3/4-length triumph. Brooklyn Bobby (Frankel {GB}) completed the exacta. The winner is a half to Emerald Beech (Maria's Mon), GSW, $269,338; Beyond Smart (Smart Strike), SW, $181,147; and Sir Ector (Dynaformer), GSP-Ire, $317,296. His dam was placed in four group Events in France and ran second in the GIII Bewitch S. in the U.S. She is responsible for a 2-year-old Point of Entry colt named Beyond the Point and foaled a filly by Animal Kingdom last spring.
