ELECTRIC FOREST (f, 3, Curlin–Forest Music {MGSW & MGISP, $370,566}, by Unbridled’s Song) followed in the hoofprints of her ‘TDN Rising Star’ half-brothers Maclean’s Music (Distorted Humor) and Kentuckian (Tiznow) with a good-looking debut win at Keeneland Saturday. Away a step slow from post 11, the 5-2 shot quickly got her legs beneath her and moved up the four path to sit mid-pack off an quick first quarter in :22.03. Progressing up the outside as they hit the half in :45.75, the Stonestreet homebred was even with leader East Moon (Speightstown) exiting the bend, but that rival began to edge away a bit in early stretch. However, Electric Forest would not let her get away that easy and kept on finding to overtake that foe in the final furlong and kick clear to a one-length victory in 1:17.23. The winning connections Chad Brown, Stonestreet and Jose Ortiz team up again later in the card with champion and GII Toyota Blue Grass S. favorite Good Magic (Curlin). Maclean’s Music made just one start, but he made it count with a 116 Beyer Speed Figure and has proved his worth as a stallion, siring GI Preakness S. winner Cloud Computing in his first crop. Kentuckian, a $610,000 KEESEP yearling, is a Grade III winner. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0.
