It was a battle down to the wire, but class prevailed as MGISW Far Bridge (English Channel) made a successful 2025 seasonal bow in the GIII Pan American Stakes.

Content to watch Corruption (Medaglia d'Oro) as that one put up all the fractions on the front end, he had to muscle his way to clear racing room on the second turn, but managed to secure his lane for a ground saving trip. On the attack coming off the final turn as the longtime leader tried to give them the slip entering the homestretch, the pair locked horns down to the wire in a race neither deserved to lose, but one which ultimately had to be decided as Far Bridge got the better of Corruption. Padiddle (Empire Maker) claimed third as a massive 43-1 longshot.

Far Bridge was last seen fading to ninth in the GI Breeders' Cup Turf but had come into that championship race with back-to-back elite victories under his belt in the GI Joe Hirsch Turf Classic Stakes and the GI Sword Dancer Stakes, both in New York.

The final time was 2:22.73 for the mile and a half marathon.
