First Black-Type Win For Found’s Sister

Showing distinct promise when runner-up to the re-opposing Rayisa when that rival had an experience edge on debut over a mile at Gowran Park Sept. 20, the audaciously-named Best In the World was confidently supported to reverse the placings here and broke well to stalk the early pace set by that rival. Cajoled to the front passing the furlong pole, the bay was kept up to her work to record a cozy success from the closer Dolce Strega. “She came on nicely from Gowran and will make a lovely middle-distance filly next year,” Aidan O’Brien commented. “Ryan said she feels like her sister. You would have to be happy with that and Ryan was kind to her.”
