Caravaggio was hammered into 1-3 favouritism on the boards and duly obliged in this debut run. Steady away from the inside gate to track the leaders in third, he was sent to the front approaching the final furlong and ran on well for mild coaxing, despite exhibiting shades of greenness, in the closing stages to score by 1 3/4 lengths from stablemate Lundy (GB) (Fastnet Rock {Aus}). They grey, who is a half-brother to My Jen (Fusaichi Pegasus), GSW-US, $203,000, hails from the family of MGSW G1 Secretariat S. third Sharp Performance (Kris S.). He is also kin to a filly foal by Scat Daddy.
