Uncle Mo Filly Goes Gate-to-Wire at Aqueduct

1st-AQU, $60,000, Msw, 11-15, 2yo, f, 6f, 1:12.78, ft.
+MO D'AMOUR (f, 2, Uncle Mo–Neverthesame, by Scat Daddy) was off at 2-5 for this career unveiling and ran to her odds with a gate-to-wire score at Aqueduct Sunday. In receipt of a bullet drill at Saratoga with a best-of-five five furlongs in 1:02.76 Nov. 9, the dark bay rushed up to seize command a few strides from the stalls and never relinquished that hold. Pressed by 42-1 longshot Gate Crasher (Montbrook) with Anydayismyday (Afleet Alex) three deep in third, the King of Prussia Stable colorbearer set splits of :22.90 and :46.22. She began to tire in deep stretch, but a green Anydayismyday couldn't capitalize and was forced to settle for second, beaten one length. Mo d'Amour, whose second dam is MGSP Salut d'Amour (Danehill Dancer {Ire}), is the 24th winner for her freshman sire (by Indian Charlie).
