Giant's Causeway Colt Rallies to Debut Score at Woodbine

Giant's Causeway | Coolmore Stud

3rd-WO, C$56,700, Msw, 10-18, 2yo, 6f (AWT), 1:11.34, ft.
+GREATEST GAME (c, 2, Giant's Causeway–Wilshewed, by Carson City) delivered the goods as the 9-5 favorite to complete a sweep of the two open maiden events on the Canadian International undercard for his trainer. The chestnut got an ideal set-up, racing in sixth in the early stages as five rivals scrambled for the lead through fractions of :22 3/5 and :45 3/5. Picking up the chase midway on the turn, he threaded through an opening in the middle of the course turning for home and rallied to post a 2 3/4-length score over Bears Terminator (Tiznow), who held best of the pacesetters. The winner, a $350,000 KEESEP yearling acquisition, is a half to Stormello (Stormy Atlantic), GISW, $700,100; My Best Brother (Stormy Atlantic), GSW, $363,392; and Gala Award (Bernardini), GSW, $258,044. Wilshewed has a yearling filly by Bernardini, a weanling colt by Medaglia d'Oro and she was bred back to the latter sire this term. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $25,970.
