1st-BEL, $75K, Msw, 2yo, f, 6f, post time: 1:30 p.m. ET
VIRGINIA ELOISE (Curlin) was acquired by St Elias Stable in utero for $500K at KEENOV in 2015 and with good reason, as her second dam, the GSW Miss Macy Sue (Trippi) has been responsible for ‘TDN Rising Star’, GISW and freshman sire Liam’s Map (Unbridled’s Song), GSW & GISP Not This Time (Giant’s Causeway) and fellow Rising Star, SW & GSP Taylor S (Medaglia d’Oro). Her yearling half-sister is cataloged as hip 39 through Lane’s End at FTSAUG next month. TJCIS PPs

4th-LRC, $40k, Msw, 2yo, f, 5f, post time: 5:28 p.m. ET
BELLAFINA (Quality Road) was led out unsold on a bid of $220K at KEESEP last fall, but progressed over the next six months and was hammered down to Kaleem Shah for $800K at FTFMAR after drilling an eighth in :10 flat. Her stakes-placed dam Akron Moon (Malibu Moon) has already bred this filly’s SW & GSP full-brother Diamond King and her second dam Akronism (Not For Love) was a Grade III winner on turf and synth. New Jersey-bred Lil Miss Moppet (Uncle Mo), a daughter of MSP Winilisious (Lawyer Ron), fetched $200K at FTKJUL last summer and double that price from Phoenix Thoroughbreds at OBSMAR after working her eighth of a mile in :10 flat.

6th-LRC, $40k, Msw, 3yo/up, f/m, 6f, post time: 6:28 p.m. EDT
JADE DEE (Congrats), a $90K KEENOV weanling, was knocked down for $270K at FTSAUG the following summer, the second most-expensive of 49 yearlings by her underrated sire to sell in 2016. Owned by Charles and Susan Chu, the bay is out of an unraced half-sister to GISW Mona de Momma (Speightstown). Her third dam includes Mr. Greeley (Gone West) and GI Kentucky Derby hero Street Sense (Street Cry {Ire}). TJCIS PPs
