HARD NOT TO LOVE (f, 3, Hard Spun–Loving Vindication, by Vindication) made good on her ‘TDN Rising Star’-worthy debut victory here Feb. 16 with a solid defeat of her elders Saturday. A half-sister to MGSW & GISP, Queen’s Plate winner Wonder Gadot (Medaglia d’Oro), the one-eyed filly was on the outside of a four-horse duel for control through a swift first quarter in :21.83. Taking control as the half went in :45.12, the $400,000 KEESEP grad cruised clear of the field and looked home free with Tiago Pereira motionless in the saddle. However, Lady Ninja (Majesticperfection) came flying late in the stretch, looking a threat to the winner, but Pereira never moved and Lady Ninja was still 3/4 of a length behind at the line. Lifetime Record: 2-2-0-0.

O-Mercedes Stables, West Point Thoroughbreds, Scott Dilworth, Dorothy & David Ingordo and Steve Mooney; B-Anderson Farms (ON); T-John Shireffs.
