DREAM ON (c, 3, Not This Time–Mamma Kimbo {GSW, $242,250}, by Discreet Cat) put together a classy juvenile campaign, breaking his maiden second asking when switched to the turf at Ellis Park and earning placings in the Soar Free Stakes and, more notably, in the GI bet365 Summer Stakes at Woodbine going one mile Sept. 14. Fifth at odds of 15-1 in the GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf at Del Mar Nov. 1, Dream On then enjoyed a short break before returning to the races as a 3-year-old with Lasix Saturday. Trying his longest distance to date, the popular 1-2 favorite stalked from just off the speed while a close-up third as 16-1 longshot Tank (Adios Charlie) led the field up the backstretch. Spun off the turn wide, Dream On put in a strong bid to head the pacesetter at the furlong marker and edged away in the later stages to win by 1 1/4 lengths.
