Bronx Beauty aired by seven lengths at Penn National July 13 and was given a 10-1 chance to make it two straight in this stakes bow. The grey was settled just behind early splits of :22.04 and :46.48. Three wide coming off the turn, she once again showed her dominance late to score by an easy 4 1/2 lengths over Beaux Arts. Favored Little Dipper was third. “She has done everything right so far,” winning trainer Anthony Margotta, Jr., said. “She's always had a great frame of mind. That's more than half the battle with these horses. She's a PA-bred so if all goes well, there is a stakes down there at the end of September so that may be a part of the equation. We were second in the Sorority last year, so I'd like to get that for the owners.” The winner's dam produced a Liason colt in 2016 and a Twirling Candy filly this year. She was bred back to GI Breeders' Cup Classic winner Bayern. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by Fasig-Tipton.
