Scat Daddy Firster Goes Wire-to-Wire at Del Mar

+PRETTY N COOL (f, 2, Scat Daddy— Stayclassysandiego {SP}, by Rockport Harbor) led wire-to-wire in an impressive unveiling Sunday afternoon at Del Mar. The gray prepared extensively for this first trip to the post with a series of swift works at Los Alamitos and Santa Anita dating back to mid-April and was hammered down to even-money favoritism. Away to a sharp beginning, she dictated terms through a quarter-mile in :22.13 over the sloppy main track and widened turning for home. Pretty N Cool was never challenged and crossed the wire 4 1/2 lengths clear of longshot Dreamy Art (Tiz the One). The winner, a $160,000 KEESEP yearling purchase, is out of a dam who is a half to GISW Sean Avery (Cherokee Run). Stayclassysandiego, who placed in the Listed Landaluce S., produced a half-sister to the winner in Classydame (Blame) in 2014 and a filly by Lemon Drop Kid in 2015. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $42,000.
