Albaugh Family Stable and Darby Dan's Phillips Racing Partnership team up on juvenile newcomer BRYZZO (Medaglia d'Oro). Bred by Phillips and Darley as an apparent foal share, team Albaugh went to $500,000 for him at Keeneland September. The dark bay is a half to last year's GI Queen Elizabeth II Challenge Cup S. heroine Time and Motion (Tapit). His SW and MGSP dam Ellie's Moment (Kris S.) was also responsible for SW and GSP Awesome Bet (Awesome Again) and MGSP Moment in Dixie (Dixieland Band). She's a half to the late two-time Grade I winner and successful Japanese sire Brian's Time (Roberto).

Also making his debut is French Curve (Tiznow), a half-brother to GISW Square Eddie (Tiznow).
