Peter Brant's ARIZONA TERRITORY (Tapit) is a homebred son of Cafe Americano (Medaglia d'Oro), a $625,000 Keeneland September yearling purchase whose victory in the 2019 GIII Pucker Up Stakes completed a Chad Brown sweep of the four graded events on Arlington Million Day (Sistercharlie {Ire}, Beverly D. S.; Valid Point, Secretariat S.; Bricks and Mortar, Arlington Million). Already the dam of the stakes-placed Lavender Disaster (Into Mischief), Cafe Americano is a daughter of two-time Sovereign Award and three-time graded winner Roxy Gap (Indian Charlie), whose four additional winners includes MGSP Angelou (Curlin). The Wertheimer Brothers are also represented here by their homebred colt Waystar (Uncle Mo), a full- or half-brother to three winners from three to race out of MSP Westit (GB) (Tapit), among them GSP Soviet Excess (Uncle Mo) and SP Nomos (Uncle Mo).
