Crimson Light Rolls Into ‘TDN Rising Star’ Station After Debut At Aqueduct

[Wandering Eyes]

4th-Aqueduct, $70,000, (S), Msw, 1-7, 3yo, 6 1/2f, 1:22.04, sy, head.
CRIMSON LIGHT (c, 3, City of Light–Crimson Frost {MSW & GSP, $476,278}, by Stormy Atlantic) debuted with Lasix as the even-money choice here, but he hopped at the start and spotted the field at least 15 lengths. Rolling from the back of the pack around the far turn, the bay moved to the center of the course down the lane, briefly bumped with Shore Time (Not This Time) and got up in the shadow of the wire to secure 'TDN Rising Star' status. The winner is his dam's first offspring, but he does have a 2-year-old unraced half-brother named Guns and Ships (Gun Runner). Sales History: $280,000 Ylg '22 SARAUG. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $38,500. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by FanDuel TV.

WOW! #1 CRIMSON LIGHT ($4.20) veered in after the break, hit the rail, and was well out of it early. The debut runner was still at the back of the field heading into the stretch, but absolutely flew down the lane to get up in time to win the 4th at Aqueduct. pic.twitter.com/5Zz6h7fh6Z
