Lemon Drop Kid Firster Wins Gulfstream Debut

SHOW ME (f, 3, Lemon Drop Kid–Apt to Star, by Aptitude) made her debut over the Gulfstream turf Thursday, stalking the pace from the two-path through fractions of :23.40 and :47.70. The bay filly overtook the leader midway on the far turn, opened clear in the stretch and narrowly held off a game bid from fellow firster Bold Contender (Strong Contender) to score by a nose in a sharp 1:41.67 for 1 1/16 miles. The winner is a half-sister to Aegean (Northern Afleet), GSW, $329,532; and Light Bringer (Northern Afleet), SW, $102,960. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $24,000.
