10th-Santa Anita, $68,000, Msw3-18, 3yo, f, 6 1/2f, 1:15.86, ft, length 1 1/2.
HAPPY (f, 3, Munnings–Beautiful Lady, by Medaglia d’Oro) jumped well with 9-2 despite being bumped out of the gate on her first run and forced to finish from the outside moment. Traveling kindly while racing hand in hand, she turned up the heat on the long turn and prepared for the challenge of the favored $1.2 million FTFMAR graduate and starter the second time Ruby Nell (Bolt d’Oro) leaves the quartile column. However, the Pleasant is still very much in the tank and powers the house to graduate 1/2 length. Fair Lady, daughter of GISW and the excellent GI Breeders’ Cup Sprint, runner-up Honest Lady (Seattle Slew), had a dirty marriage. Not this time in 2022 and was not bred again. This is also the full female family of GISWs First Defense (Unbridled’s Song), Empire Maker (Unbridled) and Chester House (Mr. Prospector). Broodmare of the Year Toussaud (El Gran Senor) is Pleasant’s third dam. The Munnings via Medaglia d’Oro Cross is also responsible for GSW Barkley. Lifetime record: 1-1-0-0, $40,200. click for Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by TVG.
