SIERRA SILVER (c, 3, Game Winner–Promise Me Silver {GSW, $486,681}, by Silver City) ran third behind 'TDN Rising Star' Goal Oriented (Not This Time) when he was unveiled in Arcadia Apr. 6. The grey served as the runner-up at Santa Anita May 10 before getting slammed at the windows to even-money here. The 3-year-old went to his knees at the break, but was able to recover to run in the third flight up the backstretch. Sierra Silver started to move up behind the pacesetter and around the far turn the colt took control like he was running the point. Confidently handled down the lane, the Bob Baffert trainee leapt from the free throw line to winner's circle. Cheever (Into Mischief) was the runner-up by 4 1/4 lengths. A $325,000 Keeneland November buy for Chester & Mary Bowman, the winner's dam is responsible for 2-year-old colt Cerro Rico (Yaupon) and she foaled a colt by Taiba Apr. 8. Sales History: $190,000 2yo '24 OBSAPR. Lifetime Record: 3-1-1-1, $55,800. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by FanDuel TV.
