‘Rising star TDN’ We who (Structure) delivered a performance for those who weathered the rain at Belmont Saturday — and fans watching at home — with a dominant and seemingly effortless victory in the GII Peter Pan S., the local tournament. Preparation for GI Belmont S. June 11th.
Given as second choice 5-2 after 2-1 favorite Set Sail (Malibu Moon), Our people were alert and rushed for immediate control. Clicking the openings of :23.46 and :47.24 in the clear lead, the bay remains within itself under a motionless Flavien Prat turning his head home. Prat shook the reins at the pony at the top of the lane and We the People immediately reacted, opening the field with ease to win for fun ahead of 10 1/4 lengths. Golden roller coaster (Ghostzapper) is the runner-up with Vote (Quality Sugar) in third place. Favorite Set Sail never caused any impact, coming in sixth.
“[In the Arkansas Derby] Everyone broke well and all sent [for the lead] so I found myself wide and had to step back, retreat and he didn’t understand what I wanted from him from that moment on,” Prat said. “Today, he played well and put me in the race. I want to have a clear and clear ride and see what he can do from there. He responded really well.”
“We know how good he is,” said winning coach Rodolphe Brisset, who also finished fourth. Western River (Tapit). “Sometimes he’s just his own enemy because he’s a bit cocky. It’s good today. He was warm in the training ground and we gave him a bath and you could see he was quite comfortable and drying out. I think the warm-up is good compared to Arkansas. Of course, if we bring a man here it’s because we think he’s got the shot to do it. He can run on anything. He is one of those people. “
Regarding running one or both of her students in Belmont, Brisset said, “We [brought] both here to see if we can take a look at Belmont. Obviously, We the People passed the test, and I think I’ll have to watch the replay and spend 10 days waiting to decide on Western River. He was just defeated [less than] half length for seconds. I don’t think the race is set up for him because they went to: 47 1/5 and it wasn’t really fast enough to make that big hit. We know two turns could also be key for the Western River. ”
When the $110,000 KEENOV weaned raised $220,000 KEESEP aspiration, We the People summoned $230,000 from WinStar at the Fasig-Tipton Gulfstream Sale after participating. : 10 3/5 as part of the dispersal of the late Paul Pompa’s fortune.

Attempting to join the GI Kentucky Derby trail, he ran in the April 2 GI Arkansas Derby – his first start without Lasix – but was unsuccessful, finishing in seventh place.
