Pink Blossom made an auspicious debut here for the Bruce Headley barn. Coming off a lengthy run of six-furlong drills in the mornings, the 3-1 second chance was up from the rail draw to set fast :21, :44 and 1:08 2/5 fractions. Tackled by the odds-on Nicole H (Mr. Greeley) in mid-stretch, Pink Blossom gamely turned back the challenge of that foe and won by a half-length. Sales history: $105,000 wlng '07 KEENOV; $180,000 yrl '08 KEESEP. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $26,400.
