Pacific Wind, dismissed at 13-1 off a steady main-track worktab, came roaring down the lane with an impressive turn of foot to garner ‘TDN Rising Star’ status. Tracking from midpack while three-deep early, the $200,000 KEESEP yearling inched closer while still hung wide around the home bend. She continued her powerful advance into the lane, and blew away her competition with an impressive stride to score by a geared-down six lengths in 1:35.35. Zaffinah (Ire) (Casamento {Ire}) was second. The winner, who is campaigned by similar connections to last year’s champion 2-year-old filly Champagne Room (Broken Vow), is a half to useful turfer Strike a Deal (Smart Strike), MGSW & GISP, $1,071,675. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0.
