Tapit Debutante Just Up at Santa Anita

Tapit | Gainesway

+TAPPED (f, 2, Tapit–Gemswick Park {GSW & GISP, $238,032}, by Speightstown) rallied from off the pace and overcame a wide journey to just get up in the shadow of the wire for a debut triumph at Santa Anita. Coming in off a five-furlong gate work in 1:00 1/5 (5/14) at Los Alamitos Sept. 23, the chestnut was let go at 39-10 in this unveiling and broke a half-beat slowly from the outside stall. Dropping out to run seventh in the early going, the homebred got a good pace to run at up front, with a pair of leaders dueling through splits of :21.87 and :44.95. Revving up four to five wide on the turn, Tapped closed stoutly in tandem with Jilly (Lookin At Lucky) to her inside and just outnosed that foe on the line in 1:10.38. The victress's dam was a graded stakes winning dirt sprinter and she produced a Super Saver filly this term before visiting Carpe Diem. SW second dam Queen's Park (Relaunch) is a half to GISW Poet's Voice (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}). Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $31,200. O/B-L N J Foxwwod (KY); T-Jerry Hollendorfer.
