LIFE'S A PARLAY (c, 3, Uncle Mo–Mir Cat, by Tale of the Cat), backed down to even-money stretching out an additional furlong after a third-place run as the chalk on debut Jan. 6, dueled and drew off to get the job done this time around. The $725,000 KEESEP pick-up knocked heads early with Travelling Midas (Quality Road) before putting that one away at the top of the lane. Wandering about a bit as the finish line approached, he made it with daylight to spare by 1 1/2 lengths from the fast-charging Personal Time (Malibu Moon). Travelling Midas held of for third. The winner is a half to Declassify (Orientate), GISW, $261,740. His dam visited American Pharoah last breeding season. Lifetime Record: 2-1-0-1, $35,670.
