Arctic Beast (Yaupon) made it three-for-three in his young career with a second straight romping success in stakes company in Monday's New York Breeders' Futurity at Finger Lakes.

Sent off at a nickel on the dollar to build on a 7 1/4-length success over Diamond Child (Weekend Hideaway) and Party in the Army (Army Mule) in the 5 1/2-furlong Aspirant Stakes Sept. 22, the two-time Fasig-Tipton graduate was content to track outside of Diamond Child through the early exchanges as Party in the Army made up for lost time after going in the air at the break. Cruising up to the front-runner nearing the stretch, Arctic Beast wrested command under a hold and raced away to yet another convincing victory. Party in the Army was along late to complete the exacta as the 12-1 second choice.

Arctic Beast is the lone winner for his dam, a close relative of the dual stakes-winning Freudie Anne (Freud). He is the last listed produce for Frostie Anne. Click for the Equibase.com chart.
