GREEN LIGHT GO (c, 2, Hard Spun&log=">Hard Spun–Light Green {SW & GISP, $167,690}, by Pleasantly Perfect) fired a pair of bullets leading up to this unveiling, most recently breezing a half-mile over the Belmont main track in :48 flat (1/8), but was let go at 6-1 for a trainer whose horses typically need a start or two. Seizing the early advantage, the homebred ticked off opening splits of :22.94 and :45.73. Another Miracle (American Pharoah) drew alongside Green Light Go on the backstretch run, but the pacesetter turned back that foe in the lane and cruised clear to win by three lengths. Stakes winner and GI Prioress S. runner-up Light Green's most recent produce is a yearling colt by Creative Cause. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $44,000.
