FIGHTING SEABEE (c, 2, Summer Front–Broke N Dixie, by Broken Vow) became the first stakes winner for his freshman sire (by War Front) with a decisive score in Saratoga’s GIII With Anticipation S. A debut winner going a mile on the lawn at Ellis Park July 6, he was bet down to 5-1 from a 10-1 morning-line quote. Seizing the early advantage, the bay avoided trouble as a slow-breaking Our Country (Constitution) rushed up and attempted to push through on the fence, interfering with Tuggle (Point of Entry) and Andesite (The Factor) at the back of the compact bunch heading into the first turn. New York-bred Fly Fly Away (First Samurai), a half to talented turf sprinter Disco Partner (Disco Rico), pressed from a head second on the fence as Fighting Seabee walked the dog through opening splits of :24.21 and :50.50. Fly Fly Away called it quits in the lane and Field Pass (Lemon Drop Kid) took up the baton, but proved no match for the pacesetter, who had plenty left in the tank. Fighting Seabee kept on finding to hold that one at bay by two lengths on the line in a final time of 1:43.34. Andesite got up for third. Lifetime Record: 2-2-0-0.
