Frost Free Coast to Coast in Chick Lang

[Wandering Eyes]

Capitalizing on his characteristic quick turn of foot and a rocket ship out of the gate, Frost Free (c, 3, Frosted–D J's Favorite, by Union Rags) took to the lead and never looked back to claim his first black-type win in the GIII Chick Lang S.

With the poor start of Mr Skylight (Practical Joke), Frost Free was able to step out and have the pace his own way, putting up :23.24 and :46.66 fractions before rolling into the lane still in command. The grey started his career at Lone Star with Danny Pish before moving over to Oaklawn Park and Brett Creighton. He'd most recently hit the board in the Bachelor S. Apr. 27.

Cats by Five (Audible) gave chase but could only manage second despite the winner drifting around late. Mr Skylight got up for third.
