Good Samaritan Colt Pulls off Bourbon Shocker

[Wandering Eyes]

DJ Stable LLC and Cash Is King LLC's CAN GROUP (c, 2, Good Samaritan–Blue Gallina, by Street Sense) rallied from last to first at 27-1 in Sunday's GII Castle & Key Bourbon S. at Keeneland to narrowly stamp his ticket to the GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf. Last-out Sapling S. scorer Noted (Cairo Prince) came out on the wrong end of a tight photo, while Pepsi Juvenile Sprint S. winner Vote No (Divisdero) rounded out the lucrative trifecta. The winner was third in a pair of dirt sprints at Ellis to kick off his career before breaking through in visually impressive fashion going seven panels on the Kentucky Downs sod Sept. 2. He builds on a strong month-plus in Kentucky for his young sire (by Harlan's Holiday), who was also represented by the $1-million GIII Big Ass Fans Music City S. winner and $1-million Dueling Grounds Oaks runner-up on the same weekend Can Group earned his diploma.
