ARTISTIC LANEY (f, 2, Preservationist–Artistic License {SW, $196,488}, by Heart of the Storm), chilly on the board at 9-1 in her afternoon debut, tucked in behind the leading duo of Pretty Patty (Bold Warrior) and Twisted Justice (Biondetti), content to sit off them through fractions of :22.73 and :48.80. Shaken up to take the lead with a four-wide move into the stretch, she was easily the class of the field to the wire, hitting the line 3 3/4 lengths to the good of Pretty Patty who filled out the exacta. The first winner for her freshman sire (by Arch), Artistic Laney has yearling half-sister by Complexity and a newborn half-sister by Jimmy Creed. Her sire currently stands at Airdrie Stud for $10,000 LFSN. Sales History: $20,000 Ylg '22 KEESEP. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $14,220. Click for the Equibase.com chart.
