Sugaree earned a sweet victory for her freshman sire By My Standards (by Goldencents) as she came home a winner at second asking over the Colonial main track on Saturday.
A runner-up facing auction-restricted maidens at Churchill Downs June 29, the filly was well-supported as the 70 cents on the dollar favorite here. The juvenile chased the pace from midpack up the backstretch and had some work to do around the far turn. As the leader began to tire down the lane, Sugaree came with a run to the outside and passed Barbados Bulldog (Barbados) in the final jumps to get her picture taken.
By My Standards, the GII Twinspires.com Louisiana Derby victor who is a member of Spendthrift's stallion roster, claims 64 foals of racing age. As for the winner's dam, she produced current 3-year-old gelding Ace On the Turn (Higher Power) and was entered in Drain the Clock's book for next term.
