FILM SHOT (c, 3, Distorted Humor--Film Maker {GISW, $2,203,730}, by Dynaformer) showed little when sprinting at Aqueduct first out in November. Despite being the son of an accomplished turf mare, he was let go at 18-1 when testing the sod at Gulfstream Feb. 1, and he left the bettors kicking themselves when he donned cap and gown. The homebred faded to ninth after setting solid fractions back in Florida in an optional claimer Feb. 25, but bounced back a bit to be second last time at Keeneland Apr. 13 behind local GSP runner Coalport (Kitten's Joy). Made the 3-2 favorite this time, Film Shot assumed the pole position from the outset and was never seriously threatened, keeping a late run from Chalice (Pulpit) at bay to score handily by 2 1/2 lengths. Lifetime Record: 5-2-1-0, $68,848. Click for the brisnet.com chart or Video, sponsored by Taylor Made Sales.
