Collected’s Comport Game in Ellis Park Juvenile

[Wandering Eyes]

It was another game display from the juveniles as Comport (Collected–Bartlett Narrows, by Flatter) refused to be denied late, and kicked home best to claim the Ellis Park Juvenile.

Content to watch Spice Runner (Gun Runner) as that 8-1 shot set the early pace in :22.88 and a half in :46.01, the chestnut looked poised to take command at the head of affairs, but the longtime leader would not be felled so quickly. The duo drew off from the field but Comport eventually got the best of his rival to win by a clear margin. Papa Ken (Yaupon) ran on to claim third.

The winner entered this contest with a maiden-breaking score at Churchill Downs June 1, and a runner-up June 29 to Romeo (Honor A.P.) in the Bashford Manor Stakes–which was won in stakes record time.

Sales history: $135,000 Ylg '24 KEESEP. O-Joseph W. Sutton; B-Edwin Anthony (KY); T-Eddie Kenneally.
