Shug McGaughey unveils Stuart Janney homebred COUNTY COURT (Harlan's Holiday) in this spot. The dark bay's pedigree certainly screams turf as his dam is a half-sister to MGSW & GISP grass runner Ironicus (Distorted Humor) and GSW turfers On Leave (War Front) and Quiet Harbor (Silver Deputy). His dam is also a half to GSW dirt runners Norumbega (Tiznow) and Hunting (Coronado's Quest). Christophe Clement is always dangerous on the turf and he saddles first timer Fuel the Bern (Bernardini) in this spot for Brushwood Stable. Out of MSW Storm Beauty (Storm Cat), the homebred is a full sibling to GSW Buffum and a half to MSW Stormy West (Gone West). The dark bay also hails from the family of champions Dayjur (Danzig), Sky Beauty (Blushing Groom {Fr}) and Gold Beauty (Mr. Prospector). TJCIS PPs. –Christie DeBernardis
