Scarlett Sky Overcomes Slow Pace in Transylvania

Stuart Janney III's SCARLETT SKY (c, 3, Sky Mesa–Mata Mua, by Arch) looked to have it all to do in Friday's GIII Transylvania S. at Keeneland, as he lingered in last of six behind a glacial pace. But, steered out widest into the stretch, he motored down the center of the course and was along late to post an ultimately cozy victory over Palazzi (Pioneerof the Nile), who hit the lead inside the final sixteenth, only to be run over in the final strides. GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf hero Fire At Will (Declaration of War) enjoyed a very soft time of things on the engine, but could not take advantage of the slow pace he set and could do no better than third. It was the second win in the race for Janney and trainer Shug McGaughey, who teamed to win the 2011 renewal with Janney homebred Air Support (Smart Strike). Scarlett Sky was most recently narrowly beaten into second by 'TDN Rising Star' Annex (Constitution) in the Feb. 27 Palm Beach S. at Gulfstream Park. Lifetime Record: 7-3-3-0. O/B-Stuart S Janney III (KY); T-Shug McGaughey.
