5. SISTER TROIENNE, GP, 1/31-11th, 1 1 16 miles (turf) (Video) Beyer Speed Figure-84 (f, 3, by Munnings-Dyna Passer, by Lemon Drop Kid) O/B-Woodslane Racing (Ky). T-Brian Lynch. J-Mario Gutierrez. Horses aren't machines, but don't tell Sister Troienne. The Sweetest Chant was her fifth straight victory, each looking exactly like the one before. She's the first foal to race from Dyna Passer, a decent sort and third in the Jockey Club Oaks. More significantly, Dyna Passer is a half-sister to multiple graded winners Wolfie's Dynaghost (Ghostzapper)–a $1.3-million earner–and Sadler's Joy (by Kitten's Joy)–a $2.6-million earner–the whole gang tracing back to Rene Wolcott and her unraced Woodslane foundation mare Dynaire (Dynaformer). 4. CANDY QUEST, TAM, 1/31-9th, 1 1-16 miles (turf) (Video) Beyer Speed Figure-85 (2nd) (f, 4, by Connect-Candy Crush, by Candy Ride {Arg}) O-Glassman Racing. B-G. Watts Humphrey Jr. T-Mark Casse. J-Sonny Leon. Solidly beaten by Aussie Girl (Ire) (see below) in the GIII Endeavour Stakes at Tampa, she had already proven her higher level stakes mettle with a triumph at Woodbine and another second at Kentucky Downs. Karl and Cathi Glassman, owners of now-retired GI Whitney winner Arthur's Ride (Tapit), bought Candy Quest as a yearling for $225,000 from Watts Humphrey at Keeneland September and turned her over to Casse, who knows the family: he trained her half-brother Frosted Over (Frosted) to two graded stakes wins at Woodbine in 2021-22. Aussie Girl | SV Photography 3. AUSSIE GIRL (IRE), TAM, 1/31-9th, 1 1-16 miles (turf) (Video) Beyer Speed Figure- 89 (m, 6, by Starspangledbanner {Aus})-Ravissante {Ire}), by Galileo {Ire}) O-Woodford Thoroughbreds. B-Airlie Stud (Ire). T-Will Walden. J-Ben Curtis. From a quick glance of PPs, her form going into the Endeavour looked a complete jumble. But excluding the Suwanee River Stakes (she was wiped out on the first turn and pulled up), her three most recent Beyers on turf were a steady 90-89-88. That put her at the head of the class, exactly where she wound up by a 2 1/2-length margin. Woodford Thoroughbreds brought herover from Ireland probably for racing promise more thanpedigree page, although her third dam is Gorgeous (Slew o'Gold)–who the seasoned will recall as a top filly 35 years ago when she frequently butted heads with Bayakoa (Arg) (Consultant's Bid). 2. SNOWYTE, GP, 2/1-4th, 1 1-16 miles (Video) Beyer Speed Figure-93 (f, 4, by Good Magic-Snow Fall, by War Front) O/B-Don Alberto (Ky). T-Danny Gargan. J-Irad Ortiz Jr. Gargan thought highly enough of Snowyte to run her in the GI NetJets Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies as a maiden, and as a 4-year-old she may finally be reaching her potential. On one hand, she caught a couple of breaks in this race: in a five horse field, odds-on favorite Clairita (Gun Runner) started last after a stumble and third choice Heavenly Sunset (Constitution) shed her rider leaving the gate. On the other hand, Snowyte did have to briefly eyeball the loose horse before continuing to a wire-to-wire 11 1/4-length victory that could be even stronger than her strong Beyer suggests. 1. SYNTHETIC, FG, 1/31-6th, 6 furlongs (Video) Beyer Speed Figure-98 (f, 4, by Midshipman-Always Here Too, by Include) O-Keith Plaisance. B-Clear Creek Stud and Theodore Brandon (La). T-Joseph Felks. J-Emanuel Nieves. Louisiana-breds have been on a roll lately. The 7-year-old Touchuponastar (Star Guitar) has won 19 of 26 races and is getting better with age. Free Like a Girl (El Deal) recently met a tragic fate after retiring this year with a Bayou-bred record $2.56 million in earnings. Ova Charged (Star Guitar) ran a 113 Beyer two years ago and won 15 of 18 before also meeting an unfortunate demise. There have been others, too, and unbeaten Synthetic has now tossed her hat into that ring. Facing open company for the first time, she powered to a 9 1/2-length win in 1:08.65 to win for the fourth time in as many starts.

perhaps the biggest indicator of mr pinns regard for any of his fellow jockeys safety,was ...when asked if he had any submissions as regards the penalty after being found guilty,he said,he regarded the charge against him was a joke. his actions and his comments afterwards,to me are quite disturbing. those hearing that case should have imposed anger management as well. I say that from the perspective of what would assist mr pinn to race ride in a proper frame of mind.
