LONG ISLAND SOUND (c, 3, War Front">War Front–Treasure Trail, by Pulpit), an $800,000 KEENOV weanling, was off the mark at the first attempt over this course and distance at the beginning of the month and started as the 5-6 favourite to follow up. Soon in front, the bay needed some stern reminders to maintain his lead up the straight but was game in response and stayed on to score by 1 1/2 lengths from Midnight Crossing (Ire) (Dark Angel {Ire}). The dam, who is a half to Zenyatta (Street Cry {Ire}) and also the GI Santa Anita Oaks, GI Santa Margarita Invitational H. and GI Las Virgenes S. winner Balance (Thunder Gulch), has a 2-year-old filly by Street Cry (Ire) and also a yearling full-brother to the winner. Lifetime Record: 2-2-0-0, $21,584. Video, sponsored by Fasig-Tipton.
