BLACK SEA (IRE) (c, 2, Galileo (Ire)–Christmas Kid {GISW-US, $596,877}, by Lemon Drop Kid), fourth on debut when encountering trouble in running over a mile at Gowran Park Sept. 20, was sent off the 5-6 favorite and showed immediate benefit from that outing to race close to the early pace. Pushed to the front passing the quarter pole, the homebred asserted under hand riding to record a comfortable two-length success from Red Rannagh (Ire) (Teofilo {Ire}). Lifetime Record: 2-1-0-0, $13,633. Video, sponsored by Fasig-Tipton.
