Peace Chant attracted a final bid of $900,000 as a KEESEP yearling and trained for his debut like a horse with a future. The dark bay prepped for his start with a six-furlong move in 1:12 1/5 Nov. 18, came back five days later to go three-eighths in :35 3/5 and had his final trial five days after that, cruising through five furlongs in 1:01 flat.
