Godolphin homebred Enliven (Ghostzapper), a daughter of MGISW It's Tricky (Mineshaft), headlines a field of seven entered for Saturday's GII Demoiselle S.
The bay graduated at second asking going 1 1/16 miles at Belmont Park Sept. 30, then finished a well-beaten second with a field-best 86 Beyer Speed Figure in Aqueduct's GIII Tempted S. Nov. 2.
Enliven makes her two-turn debut in the Demoiselle.
“She's doing well, so we hope she likes two turns; I think she will,” trainer Kiaran McLaughlin said. “She just got her butt kicked in her last race, but that filly's not back in. She's doing very well and I don't think the distance will be an issue.”
The aforementioned It's Tricky, also the dam MGSW and GI Kentucky Derby runner Enticed (Medaglia d'Oro), won a trio of Grade I events on the NYRA circuit, including Saratoga's GI TVG Coaching Club American Oaks.
Molto Bella (Violence) also makes her two-turn debut following a second-place finish behind 'TDN Rising Star' Mother Mother (Pioneerof the Nile) in Churchill's Rags to Riches S. Oct. 28.
The cleverly named Filly Joel (Dialed In) broke through at third asking with a runaway maiden win going 1 1/16 miles at Belmont Park Oct. 25.
