Woodslane homebred Sister Troienne (Munnings), already on a three-race win streak, kicked off 2026 with a bang, driving clear to seize the one-mile Ginger Brew Stakes at Gulfstream Park Saturday.

The chestnut settled nicely on the outside in a tracking spot about a length and a half behind 23-1 Laigina (Leinster) through a :24 first quarter. The 1-5 choice, Sister Troienne edged up to the frontrunner's hip as the half clocked in :47.87, drew on even terms on the turn, and wrested command before rider Mario Gutierrez made any perceptible move. Sister Troienne drove clear to win by 1 3/4 lengths as Gutierrez eased up while Laigina held second. Final time for the mile on turf was 1:33.42.

Sister Troienne debuted with a main track third at Ellis Park last August before trying the lawn at Churchill Downs in September, resulting in a 4 1/2-length maiden special weight score. An open-daylight Keeneland allowance victory followed, with a move to Gulfstream and a Nov. 27 Wait a While Stakes win on the Tapeta after that race was taken off the turf.

Dyna Passer, dam of Sister Troienne, has a 2-year-old full-sister to the Ginger Brew winner named Ultraviolet. She didn't produce a foal in 2025, but has been bred to Oscar Performance for this spring. The mare is a half-sister to GISW Sadler's Joy (Kitten's Joy) and to MGSW Wolfie's Dynaghost (Ghostzapper).
