+SILVER THREADS (f, 2, Union Rags–Golden Mean, by Mt. Livermore) entered this unveiling with a :47 flat best-of-61 bullet over the strip May 29, and was off as the 2-1 chalk to become her freshman sire (by Dixie Union)'s second winner. Away a bit slowly, the bay rushed up in between rivals to be fourth into the lane as lone second timer Day by Day (Awesome of Course) showed the way. Looking like she'd easily reel in Day by Day in the lane, Silver Threads was herded and then bumped by that rival, and hit the line a half-length back until the stewards reversed the order of finish. A $190,000 KEESEP yearling, the winner is out of a full-sister to Canadian Horse of the Year and MGISW Peaks and Valleys, and hails from the same female family as MGSW 'TDN Rising Star' Alternation (Distorted Humor). Golden Mean also produced a yearling colt by Animal Kingdom and recently foaled a colt by champion Will Take Charge. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $20,520.
