Gulfstream race results

Prime Aurora (Mind Control) became the first winner for her New York-based freshman sire (by Stay Thirsty) with a towering debut performance at Gulfstream Park Friday afternoon. Sent off the 57-10 fourth choice in a field of eight--of which seven were making their first trip to the races--the homebred did not break especially well from gate two, but did not have to expend too much energy to move into a striking position behind pacesetting favorite Lamdara (Core Beliefs) and the once-raced Melody Queen (Volatile) behind a quarter in :21.63. Full...

Mythical (St Patrick's Day) outclassed four overmatched rivals in Saturday's Sophomore Fillies Sprint to earn her sixth career stakes success and a return trip to Saratoga. Pinballed around between rivals at the break, the Cohen homebred elected to sit off dueling pacesetters from third through the opening half-mile. Cruising up to the leaders in hand on the turn, Mythical poked her head in front at the five-sixteenths marker, raced well off the rail in the stretch and proved a much-the-best winner. Mythical won five of her six starts at two,...

Two days after 'TDN Rising Star' presented by Hagyard Mashallah provided Maxfield's trainer Brendan Walsh with his first winner by the Darley stallion sprinting on the dirt at Keeneland, INTEGRITY (f, 3, Maxfield--Truthful, by Bodemeister) repeated the dose in a one-mile maiden on the turf to open the Gulfstream program Saturday afternoon. Distanced on dirt debut at Ellis Park last July when she was sent off just shy of 7-2, the $325,000 Keeneland September yearling re-emerged here with Lasix and blinkers for the first time and was kicked straight into...

Wathnan Racing's Commandment (Into Mischief) came with a late surge to nail The Puma (Essential Quality) by a nose in a heart-stopping renewal of Saturday's GI Curlin Florida Derby at Gulfstream Park. It was a half-length back to 'TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard' Chief Wallabee (Constitution) in third. Favored Nearly (Not This Time) tired to fourth. The Diamond Anniversary of the Curlin Florida Derby offered 200 qualifying points for the GI Kentucky Derby on a scale of 100-50-25-15-10 to the first five finishers. The first jewel of the Triple...

Cannoneer (Into Mischief) was third in his unveiling at Churchill Downs last June. The colt took a six-month break then returned to earn a 'TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard', when he won by 7 1/4 lengths in Louisville Nov. 29. In his lone start this year, the bay finished a well-beaten fourth in the GIII Holy Bull Stakes. The Triple Crown nominee at 60 cents on the dollar here fired out of the blocks to lead up the backstretch. Though tracked by Lincoln's Law (Liam's Map) around the far...

2nd-Gulfstream, $68,000, Msw, 2-28, 3yo, 6f, 1:10.44, ft, 2 1/2 lengths. LINCOLN'S LAW (c, 3, Liam's Map--Bernadreamy, by Bernardini), a half-brother to Chancer McPatrick (McKinzie), MGISW, $817,875, was overlooked at 6-1 for this debut run. Not off to the greatest of beginnings, he was ridden from his outside draw to press the early leaders from third through an opening quarter in :22.34. He ranged up three deep at the quarter pole and took over in the stretch to win going away by 2 1/2 lengths over favored Quentin B (Promises...

Accoring to DRF Formulator statistics, from near-enough a 100-horse sample, Hall of Fame conditioner Bill Mott strikes with about five percent of his first-starters, but Wathnan Racing's THUNDEROUSLY (c, 3, Gun Runner--Princess Warrior, by Midshipman) made it two very taking debut scorers Saturday at Gulfstream when he kicked off his career in rousing fashion around two turns. Off at odds of 19-5, the $300,000 Keeneland September purchase bounced alertly from gate three and settled midfield on the inside as Ramajay (Knicks Go) galloped them along through even sectionals. Given the...

A very live 5-2 chance from a 9-2 morning line, Mike and Katherine Ball homebred Chief Wallabee (c, 3, Constitution--A La Lucie, by Medaglia d'Oro) traveled into the race strongly approaching the stretch and pounced on favored The Puma (Essential Quality) with just under a furlong to travel and proved a very impressive winner of what appeared to be a very hot Gulfstream maiden Saturday afternoon. The effort makes him the newest 'TDN Rising Star' presented by Hagyard. Having hinted at considerable ability in his morning trials, including a bullet...

Woodslane homebred Sister Troienne (Munnings), already on a three-race win streak, kicked off 2026 with a bang, driving clear to seize the one-mile Ginger Brew Stakes at Gulfstream Park Saturday. The chestnut settled nicely on the outside in a tracking spot about a length and a half behind 23-1 Laigina (Leinster) through a :24 first quarter. The 1-5 choice, Sister Troienne edged up to the frontrunner's hip as the half clocked in :47.87, drew on even terms on the turn, and wrested command before rider Mario Gutierrez made any perceptible...

Sent off as the 29-10 third choice in a field of five debuting over the one-turn mile at Gulfstream Park on Saturday afternoon, Class President (Uncle Mo) saved his best for the final furlong and kicked home a decisive winner, heading up a WinStar and Uncle Mo 1-2 finish. Off without incident from the two hole, the bay colt secured the perfect spot at the fence from third as second choice Prize Pick (Tiz the Law) cut out the running while flanked by the debuting Easterly (Uncle Mo)--also representing WinStar,...

Off right at her morning-line odds of 5-1, West Point Thoroughbreds and William Sandbrook's Pillar of Beauty (f, 2, Caracaro--Port Marazion, by Point of Entry) took a gap at the fence at midstretch and outfinished the once-raced Elenique (Leinster) to open her account stylishly at first asking in the opening race Saturday afternoon at Gulfstream Park. Bought back on a bid of just $16,000 at last year's Keeneland September Sale, Pillar of Beauty was entered for, but scratched from the OBS March Sale and was re-routed for the Fasig-Tipton Midlantic...

Winner of the GIII Vagrancy Stakes at the Belmont at Aqueduct meet in May, Haulin Ice (f, 4, Coal Front--She's Smoke, by Half Ours) secured her trip to the GI Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Sprint with victory in Saturday's GIII Princess Rooney Stakes at Gulfstream Park, a 'Win and You're In' race for the championship in November. The gray speedball hustled straight to the front in Hallandale, setting uncontested fractions of :23.01 and :45.50 with her ears flicking back and forth. She didn't stop, shifting into another gear at...
