'Rags' Returns in Beaumont

Chadds Ford Stable's Dancing Rags (Union Rags) returns to the site of her biggest triumph to date in Sunday's GII Adena Springs Beaumont S. at Keeneland. A second-out maiden winner when stretched to a mile at Laurel last September, the bay belied 12-1 odds when annexing the GI Darley Alcibiades S. over an additional sixteenth Oct. 7. Eighth in the GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Nov. 5, she has been working steadily–if not speedily–at Palm Meadows in the interim. Sweet Loretta (Tapit) could appreciate this cut back in trip. The $750,000 KEENOV acquisition romped over five furlongs at Monmouth in June, and cruised in Saratoga's GIII Schuylverville S. in July. She dead-heated for the win in the GI Spinaway S. back at the Spa Sept. 3, but faded to 11th in the GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Nov. 5. My Miss Chiff (Into Mischief) exits state-bred company for the first time off two romps at Fair Grounds–by six in a Jan. 26 maiden special weight and by 7 3/4 lengths in an optional claimer Mar. 5. Sine Wave (Big Brown) has a live look at a price. She got up narrowly in her Laurel unveiling Dec. 10, and blew out Parx optional claimers after a very awkward trip.
