+MARCH X PRESS (f, 2, Shanghai Bobby–Indian Rush {SP}, by Indian Charlie) completely missed the break, but she came home like she was shot out of a cannon to become the fifth winner for her freshman sire (by Harlan's Holiday). Given a 5-1 off a steady series of drills starting at Palm Beach Downs, then Monmouth, then Belmont, the $90,000 KEESEP pick-up caboosed the field early behind splits of :22.59 and :45.62. Weaving her way through horses with plenty still left to do in upper stretch as fellow firster New Pass (Point of Entry) threatened to pull away, the dark bay kicked it into overdrive and reeled in the leader to score by a neck. The winner is a half-sister to Harlan's Honor (Harlan's Holiday), SW, $110,350, who annexed the 2014 Colleen S. turf sprinting as a juvenile at Monmouth. She sold for $300,000 carrying Liam's Map filly at last year's Keeneland November sale. Dam Indian Rush has a yearling colt by Into Mischief and a weanling colt by Tiznow. She was bred back to Honor Code. $90,000 Ylg '16 KEESEP. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $43,800.Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by Fasig-Tipton.
