'Should've' Bet Her As Not This Time Filly Wires Kentucky Downs Maiden
Updated: August 28, 2025 at 3:10 pm
2nd-Kentucky Downs, $176,800, Msw, 8-28, 2yo, f, 6 1/2fT, 1:15.10, fm, 3/4 length.
SHOULD'VE (f, 2, Not This Time–More'n Likely, by Blame) drew in off the also-eligible list and shot to the front from the widest gate to show the way ahead of Chrysalism (Liam's Map). Opening at will around the far turn, she had a host of challengers coming down the stretch who ate into the advantage through the final sixteenth with Petronella (Not This Time) charging at her late but coming up three-quarters of a length short to fill out a Not This Time-sired exacta. Lael Stable purchased More'n Likely as a yearling for $275,000 back in 2015. The mare is a half-sister to GISW Hootenanny (Quality Road) out of the $1.5m Summer Wind broodmare More Hennessy. Should've herself is a half to Daring Do (Into Mischief), MSW, $256,655 with More'n Likely due back to Oscar Performance in 2026. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $102,000.
