  Seasoned Warrior, F, 2, by Majestic Warrior

1st Dam: Saoirse (Ch. Older Mare-Can, GSW, $500,721 ), by Cure The Blues

2nd Dam: Apelia, by Cool Victor

3rd Dam: Arbela, by Conquistador Cielo

Seasoned Warrior, well supported at 1-2, broke crisply and allowed Distortion (Distorted Humor) to lead the way through a quarter in :22.36. Ready to roll at the quarter pole, the powerful filly rolled to the front in the stretch sped away to a 3 3/4-length victory over Bliss (Flashy Bull). Toasting (Congrats) rounded out the trifecta. Runner-up in her career debut at Belmont June 28, the Bill Mott trainee is out of Canadian champion mare Saoirse (Cure the Blues). The filly is the sixth winner for her freshman sire (by A.P. Indy). The winner is a 3/4 to Autobahn Girl, MSW, $237,299; and a half to Hide And Chic (Seeking the Gold), MGSW & GISP, $442,852; Saoirse Cat (Storm Cat), MSP, $184,498. Lifetime Record: 2-1-1-0, $62,000.
