My Miss Sophia set the pace, but was passed late when second over 5 1/2 furlongs at this track in her Feb. 9 debut. The 1-2 favorite dawdled slightly at the break, but recovered quickly and took up a stalking position leaving the chute. Third while racing along the rail through a quarter in :23.11, she pulled her way into contention after a half in :45.71. She easily took charge on the turn and stormed clear down the stretch under a hand ride to win by 11 lengths. Senior Prom (Mr. Greeley) was second. The winner was a $260,000 KEESEP yearling. Her dam, Wildwood Flower, is a half to multiple graded stakes winner Eye of the Tiger (American Chance) and to the dam of GI Travers S. winner Afleet Express (Afleet Alex). Lifetime Record: 2-1-1-0, $31,800.
