HOMEAWAYFROMHOME (f, 2, Nyquist–Gherardini, by Bernardini) kept herself close to the lead on this second jump, took over on the bend, and was in command at the top of the lane even as a pair of challengers followed her in hot pursuit. Drifting out and bumping with Cyber Gal (Cyberknife) when that one came calling inside the furlong grounds, Homeawayfromhome battled on bravely to win the photo by a nose.
The victress had last been seen debuting July 10 sprinting over this course, and she faded to third in the lane behind SP Crack On (Maximus Mischief). Finishing behind her that day was next out winner Glycogen (Jack Christopher).
Homeawayfromhome is the first to the races for her dam. She has a yearling half-brother by Maclean's Music in the wings as well as a 2026 filly by McKinzie. The broodmare, a half to two-time Puerto Rican champion Thethiefatmidnight (Cat Thief) and MGSW & GISP Brushed by a Star (Eddington), went to Vekoma for 2027.
This is the immediate female family of Swiss champion sprinter Street Rebel, SW & MGSP Fleetstreet Dancer, and Canadian champion sprinter Apelia.
