BAMBAZONKI (c, 2, Hard Spun--Clafoutis, by Unbridled's Song), a $100,000 KEESEP yearling, was second over seven furlongs over the Polytrack in his Aug. 30 unveiling. Sent off at 3-1 in this move to the lawn, the bay colt was quickly at the front of affairs and was well-held through fractions of :25.00 and :50.38. He kicked clear in upper stretch, opened up a 4 1/2-length advantage and held on to score by two lengths over favored Mughaadir (Mr. Greeley). Click for the brisnet.com chart.
