UNMATCHED WISDOM (c, 4, Cairo Prince–Glide On By, by Pure Prize) earned his 'TDN Rising Star' tag with a 6 1/4-length win at Aqueduct just over a year ago and stayed undefeated through a win in the Curlin Stakes at Saratoga July 19. Off the board however in both the GI Travers Stakes and the GI Pennsylvania Derby, he went to the sidelines for the rest of the year and just resurfaced off the seven-month layoff Friday. Drawn inside as the 4-5 favorite, Unmatched Wisdom was let go on the lead and showed the way alone through fractions of :23.76 and :47.43. Couth (War Front) stayed closest to him into the turn but faded to leave only Will Take It (Tapit) as a challenger down the stretch. Kept to task inside the sixteenth pole, Unmatched Wisdom turned back any potential late challenge to win by ,3 1/4 lengths with Will Take It a further 9 1/4 lengths clear of third. The winner has a 2-year-old half-sister by Classic Empire and a yearling full-brother. Sales History: $25,000 Ylg '22 KEESEP; $450,000 2yo '23 OBSMAR. Lifetime Record: SW, 6-4-0-0, $310,110.
