So what's the "other part of the reason"? Although I concur with @Gammalite that your analysis is way off and factually baseless. -

When Mila's Wish (Cajun Breeze) just held on for a debut victory–and then survived a claim of foul–at Gulfstream Park Friday, track announcer Pete Aiello clued the crowd into what a special moment it was when he said, “You've heard of Cody's Wish. Here's the Florida version. Here's Mila's Wish.” Much like the 2023 Horse of the Year who was named after the late Cody Dorman, the 2-year-old colt was making the wish of another youngster come true. Mila Spillone is a 4-year-old battling Aicardi syndrome, a rare genetic disorder that has left her blind in one eye and, with low muscle tone, she is unable to walk or talk. The lifespan of someone with Aicardi syndrome is roughly 18 years. Michael Yates was able to make Mila's wish of having a horse named after her come true and the colt duly delivered with a dramatic first win Friday. “A really good friend of mine, [bloodstock agent] Sean Perl, reached out to me,” explained Yates, who trains the colt and bred and owns him in the name of his Shadybrook Farm. “His sister Jackie is director of special events for Make a Wish Southern Florida. And so that is how the connection was made. They were trying to find somebody who would grant Mila's wish to name a horse after her and I accepted the challenge. I thought it was a wonderful thing.” In the winner's circle with Mila's Wish | Lauren King Yates was originally hoping to find a homebred filly to name after the little girl with the big wish, but ultimately picked a son of the gritty Cajun Breeze, whom he co-owned and trained to three stakes-placings in Florida. “I couldn't decide which filly that I own to name that,” Yates said. “The horses were getting closer to running. And this horse was showing some talent. I thought it would be a good horse to name after her. It was also a horse that I bred and Sean Perl had actually picked the mare out for me when I bought the mare.” The 9-5 favorite in his first trip to the post Friday, Mila's Wish led from the start and was some two lengths clear at midstretch before just holding off the resurgent Lou (Brethren) by a head while running greenly late. “I expected he would run well, but as with any 2-year-old, you never really know,” Yates said. “But I expected he would run well, he had worked well.” Yates met Mila and her family for the first time Friday at Gulfstream. “They were over the top elated,” Yates reported. “And very grateful for us naming the horse after their daughter. They had a wonderful day here at the races.” Looking ahead to a potential next start for Mila's Wish, Yates said, “It's pretty early, but he's a Florida-bred and we are based here at Gulfstream. We will probably point forward to the first next step for the 2-year-olds as it comes along, which would probably be a 2-year-old stakes, if that comes about prior to an allowance race being written.” As for the inspiration for the colt's name, Mila's mother said, “Mila has overcome many challenges and each day is a blessing. She truly is a miracle.” The post Mila’s Wish Comes True at Gulfstream appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

With the better-known 'Mystik' still in the barn, Mystic Lake (Mo Town) went to the front end and never looked back, rolling home a 4 1/2-length winner over favored Youalmosthadme (Oxbow) in Friday's Miss Preakness S. at Pimlico. A second-out winner at Woodbine last fall, she was runner-up in that venue's Glorious Song S. on the synthetic in October before weakening late to be third in the GIII Mazarine S. in November. Kicking off 2024 with a win in Tampa's seven-panel Gasparilla S. on the dirt Jan. 13, the Florida-bred filly was fifth going a mile in Gulfstream's grassy GIII Herecomesthebride S. but rebounded to post a front-running victory facing state-bred rivals back on the dirt in the Sophomore Fillies S. at Tampa Mar. 24. Returning to Woodbine for her latest start, she finished second as the favorite in the Star Shoot S. over six furlongs Apr. 27. Sent off at 5-1, Mystic Lake broke like a shot from the rail and raced to the front with Launch (Omaha Beach) in hot pursuit as Value Area (More Than Ready), breaking from post 2, was pinched back and dropped back to the rear of the field. Carving out a quarter in :23.09, the filly continued to show the way over Launch and a rail-skimming Youlamosthadme through a :46.44 half. Straightening for home, Mystic Lake showed no signs of letting up and spurted clear as the 2-1 favorite tried to reel the front-runner in, but couldn't make headway late. Discreet Ops (Army Mule) closed to grab third over Cap Classique (Vino Rosso). “She jumped very well and got an early good position, and she did the rest from there,” said winning rider jockey Flavien Prat, accompanying the filly for the first time. “You've got to break well, but she did, and it turned out well.” “She is just a consistent filly and she ran big today,” added trainer Saffie Joseph, Jr. “She has run well on the dirt. She has won her last three on the dirt. The only blemish on her record was her first time on the dirt [in her career debut at Gulfstream when she ran ninth]. For some reason, she did not break that day and ran poorly.” Pedigree Notes: Mystic Lake's Miss Preakness victory gives Mo Town (Uncle Mo) his sixth career graded winner. A $130,000 OBS March 2-year-old buy, Mystic Lake was previously purchased for $3,500 by Tom McCrocklin at the OBS yearling sale in 2022. Mystic Lake was consigned to the recently concluded Fasig-Tipton May Digital Sale, but was unsold on a final bid of $370,000, having already been entered for the Miss Preakness. The filly is the first foal out of Salty Soul, herself a $30,000 Keeneland November in 2017.
