7th-KEE, $100K, Msw, 2yo, f, 7f, 4:12 p.m. ET.
SERAPHIA (Gun Runner) makes her first start for owners Twin Creeks, Jackpot, Whispering Oaks and Rick Ortyl. Initially, the filly was taken home for $675,000 at the 2022 Fasig-Tipton Fall Mixed Sale before going for $1 million at the Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Select Yearling Sale. Trained by Steve Asmussen, the juvenile is out of Temptress (Tapit), who was acquired for $400,000 by Avenue Bloodstock at the Keeneland November Sale while Seraphia was in-utero. A half-sister to GSW Donegal Moon (Malibu Moon), Temptress also produced GII Jim Dandy Stakes hero Tenfold (Curlin) and her filly by Curlin was bought by Repole Stable for $800,000 at the Fasig-Tipton Yearling Sale back in August. Seraphia's third dam is champion grass mare Possibly Perfect (Northern Baby). TJCIS PPS
