[Wandering Eyes]

2nd-Thistledown, $33,400, Msw, 6-26, 2yo, 5f, 1:00.24, ft, 1 1/2 lengths.
COASTLAND (c, 2, Promises Fulfilled–Mother Nature, by Winslow Homer) debuted as a 5-2 shot here. The homebred was second last up the backstretch, but he was under a drive to the outside around the far turn. Utilizing a full-head of steam, the 2-year-old secured the front at the sixteenth marker and won by 1 1/2 lengths over Freedom Stance (American Freedom). A half-sister to SW Faction Cat (Wildcat Heir), the winner's unraced dam is responsible for a yearling filly by Take Charge Indy and she foaled a filly by Improbable Apr. 4. Coastland is the first winner out of 28 foals of racing age for his freshman sire (by Shackleford). Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $22,840.
