+HALF IRISH (f, 3, Lonhro {Aus}–Dandanna {Ire}, by Linamix {Fr}) had been legging up consistently for the Christophe Clement barn at Payson Park, most recently recording a bullet half-mile in :50 from the gate in company with Blame It On Me (Blame), who won first out over the Tampa lawn Saturday. Breaking well at odds of 5-1, the gray filly went right to the front under Emisael Jaramillo and clicked off splits off :23.58 and :48.63, remaining unasked entering the far turn. Finally cut loose at the top of the lane, the Calumet Farm homebred kicked away strongly, dusting her competition by 5 1/2 lengths. Favored Warranty (Artie Schiller) was second. The winner's dam Dandanna is a half-sister to GSW & G1SP Courteous (GB) (Generous {Ire}). This is also the female family of French champion 3-year-old Darshaan (GB) (Shirley Heights {GB}) and G1W Darara (Ire) (Top Ville {Ire}). Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $21,600.
