+STAINLESS (f, 2, Flatter–Spring Storm, by Unbridled's Song) was out-sprinted early, but rolled home in the stretch to win going away at first asking for the Todd Pletcher barn. Bet to even-money favoritism, the gray was driven early to travel a clear second behind tearaway leader Go Astray (Gone Astray). Beginning to eat up ground at the quarter pole, Stainless uncorked a strong closing to kick to overtake the leader just outside the sixteenth pole and draw off to a 3 1/2-length success. The winner's second dam Kelli Cat (Storm Cat) is a half to 1997's champion 2-year-old filly and GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies heroine Countess Diana (Deerhound). Spring Storm is responsible for a yearling filly by Hard Spun and foaled a filly from the final crop of Proud Citizen Apr. 11. Sales History: $30,000 RNA Wlg '15 KEENOV; $75,000 Ylg '16 KEESEP.
