Mo Town’s Mae Town Secures First Black Type in Pea Patch Victory

[Wandering Eyes]

Mae Town made it three wins in a row with her first stakes win in the Pea Patch Stakes Sunday at Ellis Park.

The daughter of Mo Town broke her maiden going five furlongs at Churchill Downs May 9, and repeated against allowance company under the twin spires Jun. 11.

After a good break from her far outside post, the filly found herself towards the rear of the field up the backstretch, several lengths off the swift early tempo set in :20.92. With plenty of work to do, she was navigated to six path for her run, and began to pick off rivals with every stride. Mae Town was up in time, passing Pondering in the last few jumps, while Grade A rallied up the rail to grab third.

Mae Town is a half-sister to SW Rustler (Dominus), $233,980. Latest Thinking is a descendant of GSW Minidar (Alydar), who was the half-sister to two stakes winners and produced GII winner A Little Warm (Stormin Fever). The winner's dam is responsible for juvenile colt Longstrider (Union Rags) and was bred back to Loggins for this past season.  Click for the Equibase.com chart.
