INTERSTATEDAYDREAM (f, 2, Classic Empire–Babcock, by Uncle Mo) was backed down to 3-5 favoritism for this unveiling off a speedy string of works at Keeneland and Churchill Downs. The bay kept a close eye on the leaders from a two-wide third through a :22.95 first quarter. Wearing down the pacesetters in the lane, she was confronted by Miss Interpret (Street Sense) on her outside and the pair battled to the line with Interstatedaydream getting up by a head. She is the fourth winner for her freshman sire (by Pioneerof the Nile). The winner's dam Babcock is a half-sister to two-time Sovereign Award winner Uncaptured (Lion Heart) and MGSW Dancing Raven (Tomahawk). Babcock's only produce since the winner is a yearling filly by Broken Vow. Sales history: $105,000 Ylg '20 KEEJAN; $130,000 Ylg '20 KEESEP; $175,000 2yo '21 OBSAPR. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $49,500.
