Flawless lived up to her name with this tour-de-force victory in her career bow. In front through an opening quarter in :22.80 and half in :46.57, the even-money choice took over approaching the stretch and galloped home an easy 13 1/4-length winner over Click Your Heels (Puplit), who is a full-sibling to GISW Tapit. Hey Hey Mama (Rock Hard Ten) rounded out the trifecta. "She wasn't cranked," admitted Bill Mott. "She was only half ready. She's worked very well and has a lot of ability." Mott added, "With as well as she ran on the dirt today, we'll leave her there for now," added Mott. "It looked like another furlong wouldn't hurt her." Sales history: $285,000 RNA yrl '08 KEESEP.
