WIN THE WAR (f, 2, War Front&log=">War Front–City Sister, by Carson City) was bet down to 2-1 favoritism for her debut in Friday's third race at Woodbine and closed resolutley on the outside to get up in the final stages. The $700,000 Fasig-Tipton Saratoga purchase settled in midpack off a moderate first quarter in :23.82. The tempo picked up through the second two panels as the bay had to swing five-wide into the stretch. She got by pacesetter Ghostly Win (Ghostzapper) in the final sixteenth and outfinished fellow firster Lunar Garden (Malibu Moon), who split the two, to get to the wire first. The winner is a half to GSW & MGSP Dixie City (Dixie Union) and her third dam, Sister Dot (Secretariat), produced MGISW Dehere (Deputy Minister). Win the War's dam has an yearling colt by Declaration of War; who recently sold at the Keeneland September Sale for $95,000, and an weanling filly by Uncle Mo. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $29,317.Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by Fasig-Tipton.
