CHESTERTOWN (Tapit&hid=28277">Tapit), the $2-million topper from this year's OBS March 2-Year-Old Sale (:10 1/5), faces five fellow New York-breds in this debut run. The gray, trained by Hall of Famer Steve Asmussen, is out of GI Ballerina S. and GI Frizette S. heroine Artemis Agrotera (Roman Ruler). Bred by Chester and Mary Broman, Chestertown is campaigned in partnership by West Point Thoroughbreds, the Bromans, Woodford Racing, Siena Farm and Robert Masiello. Chestertown tuned up for this with an easy four-furlong breeze in :50 3/5 (66/90) over the training track Oct. 20. TJCIS PPs
