Discreet Cat, whose half brother Pretty Wild (Wild Again), MSW & MGISP, $398,280, was runner-up in the 2002 GI Hopeful S., trained forwardly for his debut and was sent off at odds of 5-1 in a very competitive field. Quickly into stride beneath Edgar Prado, the attractive bay was challenged by Superfly (Fusaichi Pegasus) at the quarter pole, but repulsed that bid and pulled away to score by 3 1/2 impressive lengths. Superfly, a full brother to Andromeda's Hero, had 11 lengths on Ivanovsky (Saint Ballado) in third. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $27,000.
