On the radar of our Second Chances Series, Locked (Gun Runner–Luna Rosa by Malibu Moon) rolled as the 3/5 favorite on a sunny Friday afternoon at Saratoga Race Course to secure 'TDN Rising Star' status after his first win at second asking.

The chestnut colt tracked a longshot up the backstretch, went right on by his target before the far turn and with power in copious amounts, ran on impressively (with a final quarter was sub 24) to win by seven ever-widening lengths over the never-quit Drum Roll Please (Hard Spun).

The final running time was 1:36.00. Lifetime Record: 2-1-0-1. Sales History: KEESEP22 $425,000.

O-Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners and Walmac Farm; B-Rosa Colasanti; T-Todd Pletcher.

An impressive run from #5 Locked in R5 at Saratoga! Todd Pletcher trains the 2-year-old colt by Gun Runner and @jose93_ortiz was aboard. 🌟
