+REALM (c, 2, Haynesfield–Shawnee Country {MGSW, $430,660}, by Chief’s Crown), let go at 11-1 due to the presence of heavily favored $675,000 OBSMAR buy Moon King (Malibu Moon), remained glued to the chalk’s outside hip through early splits of :22.75 and :46.30. The dark bay drew even with that foe at the top of the lane and a brief battle ensued before Realm kicked clear of Moon King to score by 1 3/4 lengths. War Stroll (Stroll) and Add Four (Include) came running late to swallow up the favorite and finish second and third, respectively. Moon King checked in fourth. Realm is the first winner for his GISW freshman sire (by Speightstown). The winner is a half to Northern Freeway (Jump Start), SW, $273,610; and his dam produced a colt by Take Charge Indy this year.
