A trio of mares bred to MGISW & 'TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard', Locked (by Gun Runner) are his first to have checked in foal, according to a press release from Gainesway Farm on Tuesday. She Be Boss (City of Light) is out of GSW Nellie Cashman (Mineshaft), and is a full-sister to GSP Cassiar and half-sister to GISP Bendoog (Gun Runner). Her first foal, She Be Boss is owned by Nathan McCauley's River Oak Farm. Also in foal is GISW Funny Moon (Malibu Moon) who is owned by Gene Batia and boarded at Jim and Pam Robinson's Brandywine Farm. She is already the dam of MGSP This Tea (Curlin) and Creole Chrome (Volatile), the winner of the Star Guitar Stakes at Fair Grounds. Finally, Itgetsgreaterlater (Justify), who is owned by Wasabli Ventures Stables and is a Serendipity Springs Farm boarder, is in foal. She is out of the full-sister to GISW Cupid (by Tapit). After notching his 'Rising Star' status, Locked secured his first top level victory when he captured the GI Claiborne Breeders' Futurity at 2 and then finished third in the GI FanDuel Longines Breeders' Cup Juvenile. At 3, the newly minted sire returned to defeat older competition in the GII Cigar Mile and the following year took the GI Santa Anita Handicap. Locked stands for $35,000 LFSN at Gainesway.

Breeders' Cup hero Gstaad (Starspangledbanner) is as short as 8-1 in the betting, as the entries for the G1 Betfred 2000 Guineas and G1 Betfred 1000 Guineas were released on Tuesday. There are 52 colts entered and 57 fillies at this entry stage. Sharing those odds with George Boughey's G2 Royal Lodge Stakes hero Bow Echo (Night Of Thunder), the G2 Coventry Stakes winner is one of nine in the race for Aidan O'Brien and the Coolmore partners. Also narrowly second in a trio of Group 1 races last year–the Prix Morny, National Stakes and the Dewhurst Stakes–the colt is joined by hype horse Albert Einstein (Wootton Bassett), a winner of the G3 Marble Hill Stakes (10-1), the 11-1 French dual Group 1 winner Puerto Rico (Wootton Bassett), G1 Futurity Trophy Stakes victor Hawk Mountain (Wootton Bassett) (14-1), G3 Killavullan Stakes winner Dorset (Wootton Bassett), the winning multiple group-placed Flushing Meadows (Wootton Bassett), Italy, a winner and third in the National Stakes, and the winners Causeway (Wootton Bassett) and Montreal (Sea The Stars). Dewhurst hero Gewan (Night Of Thunder) now races for Yulong's Zhang Yusheng, and he also won the G3 Acomb Stakes. He is 10-1 and is trained by Andrew Balding, as is the two-for-two Item (Frankel) in the colours of Juddmonte. Also with four horses entered is Charlie Appleby, with Godolphin's recent Listed Jumeirah 2000 Guineas third Talk Of New York (Wootton Bassett) currently at 12-1. Fellow royal blue colourbearer Distant Storm (Night Of Thunder) (16-1) won the G3 Tattersalls Stakes in his own right before a third-place finish behind Gewan in the Dewhurst. Undefeated in two starts is Hidden Force (Frankel) and it is a similar story for King's Trail (Sea The Stars), who has been seen just once, running out a 2 1/4-length winner at Kempton in December. John and Thady Gosden have also entered four horses, among them Juddmonte's 16-1 chance and listed second Publish (Kingman), Godolphin's stakes winner and G2 Vintage Stakes second Morris Dancer (Palace Pier), the debut winner Enoch (Frankel) for George Strawbridge and G2 Champagne Stakes second Oxagon (Frankel) for Prince A. A. Faisal. Francis-Henri Graffard has entered the 16-1 Rayif (Sea The Moon), third to Puerto Rico in the Prix Jean-Luc Lagardere, as well as multiple group winner Samangan (Blue Point), both for the Aga Khan Studs. Without Parole's Zavateri, raced by Mick and Janice Mariscotti, is 20-1 for the 2000 Guineas. Trained by Eve Johnson Houghton, the National Stakes winner was fourth in the Dewhurst. Amo Racing holds several entries with G1 Phoenix Stakes victor Power Blue (Space Blues) tops among them for Robson Aguiar. Precise Poised For Classic Laurels The Coolmore partners hold a strong hand in the 1000 Guineas, as well, with the market leader, the 5-2 Precise (Starspangledbanner). The chestnut only lost her maiden, before rattling off a quartet of victories, the final three at stakes level. Successful in the G3 Prestige Fillies Stakes in August, she claimed the G1 Moyglare Stud Stakes at The Curragh over Group 2 winner Beautify (Wootton Bassett) and wrapped her season with a 3 1/4-length win in the G1 Fillies Mile. One of 10 for Coolmore in this Newmarket Classic, Precise's biggest challenge might hail from her stablemates, as the 7-1 Diamond Necklace (St Mark's Basilica) is no stranger to high-class competition. Undefeated in three starts including the G1 Prix Marcel Boussac, the filly is joined by the 12-1 True Love (No Nay Never), the winner of the G1 Cheveley Park Stakes. Other O'Brien entries include the multiple group winner Composing (Wootton Bassett), the group-placed Moments Of Joy (Justify), the winner Simply Astounding (Wootton Bassett), and the G3 Staffordstown Stud Stakes heroine Sugar Island (Dubawi). Karl Burke saddles five here, with Tony Bloom and Ian McAleavy's G1 Prix Morny victress Venetian Sun the jewel of the quintet. Currently 12-1, the daughter of Starman is joined by G2 May Hill Stakes scorer Aylin (St Mark's Basilica) for Al Shaqab Racing and Amo Racing, Forz Europe's G1 Cheveley Park Stakes third Evolutionist (Night Of Thunder) and G2 Lowther Stakes winner Royal Fixation (Palace Pier) and the two-for-two listed winner Hope Queen (Night Of Thunder) in the silks of Jaber Abdullah. The lone Charlie Appleby entrant at this point is the one-for-one Abashiri (Frankel) in the royal blue, while Andre Fabre has G2 Prix du Calvados heroine My Highness (Ghaiyyath) (16-1) entered, also for Godolphin. Also at 16-1 is David Ward's The Prettiest Star (Starman), who ran second in the G2 Rockfel Stakes over seven furlongs in September. Of the Francis-Henri Graffard 1000 Guineas duo, the Aga Khan Studs' Valasara (Hello Youmzain) (18-1) has yet to taste defeat in two starts.

This week, five 3-year-old colts made the rankings, topped by a new Derby contender that few saw coming. 5-ALBUS, TAM, 2/27, 1 mile 40 yards (VIDEO) Beyer Speed Figure-83 (c, 3, by Yaupon–Adream, by Bernardini) O-Pin Oak Stud. B- Susan Casner (Ky). T-Riley Mott. J-Sammy Camacho. As the debate ensued last week about Solitude Dude's chances around two turns in Saturday's Fountain of Youth (he did fine), another Yaupon colt made his two-turn debut Friday at Tampa–and Albus kicked clear to a decisive 6 3/4 length victory. Based on his Gr. I pedigree, his third-out performance was no surprise. He's a half-brother to Allaire du Pont Distaff (Gr. III) winner Song of Spring (trainer Neil Howard's last GSW), but here's the really good part: his dam Adream's half-sister Dream Rush ripped off five straight triple-digit Beyers in 2007 that included wins in two Gr. Is, and back at the farm produced Gr. I winner and 2022 Broodmare of the Year Dreaming of Julia, dam of two-time Eclipse champion Malathaat and Gr. II winner Julia Shining. 4-LINCOLN'S LAW, GP, 2/28, 6 furlongs (VIDEO) Beyer Speed Figure-83 (c, 3, by Liam's Map–Bernadreamy, by Bernardini) O/B- Rigney Racing (Ky). T-Phil Bauer. J-Luis Saez. This solid debut win spotlights Richard Rigney's success as both an owner and breeder. The Louisville businessman was just getting his feet wet in racing in 2008 when he co-owned Alcibiades (Gr. I) winner and Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies runnerup Dream Empress. He later bred Dream Empress to Bernardini to get Bernadreamy, who wasn't a fast runner but joined Rigney's growing broodmare band and now is the dam of Gr. I winner and stallion Chancer McPatrick. Guided by noted bloodstock agent John Moynihan, Rigney sells most of the horses he breeds (he sold Chancer McPatrick for $260k), but this colt was withdrawn from Keeneland September as a yearling and now races in Rigney's colors. 3-WINSTON AVE, SA, 2/27, 1 mile (VIDEO) Beyer Speed Figure-83 (2nd) (c, 3, by Quality Road–Great Sister Diane, by Will Take Charge) O- Spendthrift Farm. B-Stoneriggs Farm & W.S. Farish (Ky). T-Bob Baffert. J-Florent Geroux. Spendthrift's $325k yearling buy had shown enough in two previous starts to be the 9/5 program favorite and 2/1 second betting choice as he stretched out to a mile–but was no match for the stakes-level performance turned in by stablemate Cherokee Nation (below). Even so, Winston Ave beat the rest of the field by 7 1/2 lengths and should be a short price next time, unless Baffert pulls another ace out of his sleeve. 2. ILLMATIC, AQU, 2/28, 6 furlongs (VIDEO) Beyer Speed Figure-91 (c, 3, by Honest Mischief–Woodflower, by Woodman) O-Adelphi Racing Club and LJSS Thoroughbreds. B-Sequel Stallions New York (NY). T-Miguel Clement. J-Jaime Rodriguez. Following a disappointing debut in a Saratoga turf sprint in July, Illmatic was kept with Clement's New York winter string–which makes sense, because he is a New York-bred. And last week, he was entered against state-bred maidens on dirt–which makes sense, because Aqueduct isn't running on grass yet. What didn't make as much sense (at least to bettors) was Illmatic's fast six-length frontrunning score at 9/1 odds. New York stallion Honest Mischief (Into Mischief-Honest Lady) has sired seven SWs, but this 91 Beyer is the best for any of his runners to date. 1. CHEROKEE NATION, SA, 2/27, 1 mile (VIDEO) Beyer Speed Figure-100 (c, 3, by Not This Time–Believe in Charlie, by Indian Charlie) O-SF Racing, Starlight Racing, Madaket Stables, Stonestreet Stables, Bashor Racing, Determined Stables, Golconda Stable, Waves Edge Capital and Catherine Donovan. B-Fortune Farms and William & Corinne Heiligbrodt (Ky). T- Bob Baffert. J-Emisael Jaramillo. Baffert had never before ridden 49-year-old Jaramillo, who recently transferred his tack to Santa Anita from Florida. But Jaramillo is noted for prowess with speed types, and Baffert was frustrated with his $240,000 Fasig-Tipton November weanling turned $1.15-million yearling's persistent problems leaving the gate on time. Problem solved, at least for now. Jaramillo not only got Cherokee Nation to break running, he was perched just outside frontrunning stablemate Winston Ave (above) while under a pull and breathing fire. The end result: a 10-length victory and a triple-digit Beyer that undoubtedly will earn this colt new respect if he winds up in the Santa Anita Derby, as expected.
