+BELLES ORB (f, 2, Orb–Sweet Belle {SW & GSP, $307,649}, by Deputy Commander), a half-sister to 'TDN Rising Star' Fact Finding (The Factor), SW, $138,570, graduated on debut to become the second winner for her freshman sire (by Malibu Moon). Showing a sharp worktab, highlighted by a half-mile breeze in :47 1/5 (2/53) June 16 at Churchill, the $120,000 OBS March buy took play to be 14-5 by post. Away alertly from her rail draw, the bay matched strides with eventual runner-up Mrs Rocco (Quality Road) through a :22.90 quarter, was collared midway on the turn, but battled back gamely at the fence and edged away late to a one-length success. Sweet Belle foaled a filly by Tonalist Jan. 31. Sales history: $95,000 Wlg '15 FTKNOV; $80,000 Ylg '16 KEESEP. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $24,000. Click for the Equibase.com chart.
