Emma Kate | Coady

8th-KEE, $63,799, Msw, 10-27, 2yo, f, 6f, 1:11.29, ft.

+EMMA KATE (f, 2, Successful Appeal–One for Jim {MSP, $131,555}, by Distorted Humor) breezed a bullet five furlongs in :59 3/5 (1/15) over this course two back Oct. 15 and was favored at 2-1 to earn her diploma for a barn that has been very successful with juvenile first time starters this season. Stalking from a joint second through a swift first quarter in :22.59, the bay drew even with the pacesetter through a half in :46.56. Edging clear in the lane, she was joined on her inside by Bootsy's Hadenough (Paynter), but kept that foe at bay and outlasted a late-running Ipanema Beach (Candy Ride {Arg}) to score by a length. The winner is a half to Bold Conquest (Curlin), GISP, $461,233; a yearling colt by Lookin at Lucky; and a weanling filly by Palace Malice. Her dam was bred back to MGISW Frosted. Emma Kate traces her lineage back to MGISW Jersey Girl (Belong to Me), who produced GISW Jersey Town (Speightstown). Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $39,000.
