Night of Thunder’s Dynamic Pricing Storms Clear in Just A Game

[Wandering Eyes]

Klaravich Stable's DYNAMIC PRICING (IRE) (f, 4, Night of Thunder {Ire}–Shemda {Ire}, by Dutch Art {GB}) beat Excellent Truth (Ire) (Cotai Glory {Ire}) to a spot at a crucial stage in Friday's GI Just A Game Stakes at a very soggy Saratoga Race Course and outstprinted the 8-5 chalk to the wire to give trainer Chad Brown an eighth victory in the one-mile contest in its last nine renewals and his fourth in succession. Half of those eight Just A Game winners were ridden by Irad Ortiz, Jr., but he elected to jump off the last-out GIII Beaugay Stakes winner in favor of the speedy Kehoe Beach (Omaha Beach), and even though there appeared to be plenty of speed signed on, the pair were loose on the lead through an opening quarter in :24.25, testing enough over ground listed officially as yielding, but playing much slower in actual fact. For his part, Dylan Davis had Dynamic Pricing settled one from the tail and making the most of the inside draw, kept the filly close to the inside while creeping a bit closer through a half in :48.82. Davis went for Dynamic Pricing about three furlongs out, coming around Segesta (Ghostzapper) and critically taking a four-path run just to the inside of Excellent Truth approaching the quarter pole. The duo raced shoulder-to-shoulder into the final furlong, but Dynamic Pricing got through the ground slightly the better–particularly after switching leads–and proved a one-length winner. It was the third 1-2 finish on the program for Brown and his fourth winner overall. Sales history: 170,000gns Ylg '22 TATOCT. Lifetime Record: 9-4-0-3. O-Klaravich Stable; B-Epona Bloodstock Ltd; T-Chad Brown.
