Lane’s End sire Quality Sugar there are two who started here with a world of hope riding on their backs as well as an eye-catching price tag. Break the third gate, VINCO (Quality Sugar) will try to be the fourth winner of the dam from ten ponies. Half to welcome (Tapit), who sold for $520,000 as an avid 2014 KEESEPT before retiring as a bet athlete, he had the distinction of being the most expensive prospect in a long line of expensive auction for his dam; All seven Stormy Welcome limited-time ponies sold for more than $120,000. Vinco became the most recent success after following the path of West Point Thoroughbreds for $1.5 million after joining : ten at the Fasig-Tipton Timonium sale in 2021. Inside and on the rails are Strong quality (Quality Sugar), a $500,000 2019 FTKNOV purchase by Justin Casse as an agent for Gary Barber and Kinsman Stable, who topped the jobs tab on January 9 with a five-part bullet in: 59.20 and put on a powerful panel on January 15 at the track. The foal was also re-entered for a nearly identical race tomorrow. The partnership between Winstar and Siena Farm offers another good runner in Ferocious (Violence), half for Bobby Brinkley winning the bet (Bobby Shanghai) and the second pony for the bettor, setting a course record Brinkley (City Zip), half for G1SP & MGSW, $1,055,857, Bound for Nowhere (Factor). This is also the family of the champion sprinter turned sire, Midnight Lute (Really quiet). Starting from outside that pool would be a $1 million purchase of KEESEPT Gunoe (Into Mischief), half for GIIISP Sine Wave (Big Brown), who will attempt to break her maiden on her fourth attempt after facing the likes of Chasing Time (Not this time) Final. Trainer Brad Cox hits big numbers for first-timers with Lasix, a condition this pony is well suited for. PP of TJCIS
