GAREN (c, 3, Street Cry {Ire}–Quendom {Arg}, by Interprete {Arg}), was a non-factor eighth over six furlongs here Dec. 28, and was equipped with blinkers when fourth going 5 1/2 panels after squandering an early lead in deep stretch. A generous 3-1 for this first two-turn voyage, Garen broke well and cut to the rail and set a leisurely pace. Big Tire (Candy Ride {Arg}) stalked those slow fractions, but Garen kicked away in the stretch and was unchallenged en route to a 2 1/4-length defeat of Big Tire. The winner is a half to Invasor (Arg) (Street Cry {Ire}), Horse of the Year & Ch. Older Horse-US, Horse of the Year-Uru, Ch. 3yo Colt-Uru, MGISW-US, G1SW-UAE, MSW-Uru, $7,690,000; and to Interpret (Distorted Humor), SW-UAE, $128,558.
