Well-related UNEXPECTED (California Chrome) makes his debut here for trainer Eddie Plesa Jr. and the Chu family's Baoma Corporation, which also campaigned his MGISW half-sister Bast (Uncle Mo). A $500,000 FTSAUG '18 yearling, Bast was a frequent visitor to California winner's, scoring victories in the GI Del Mar Debutante S., GI Chandelier S., GI Starlet S. and the GII Santa Ynez S. in her final career start. She was also a stubborn third in the GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies behind eventual Eclipse Award winner British Idiom (Flashback). Bast would go on to bring $4.2 million from Spendthrift Farm while in foal to Justify at the 2020 Fasig-Tipton November sale. Their dam Laffina RNA'd for $290,000 while carrying Bast at the 2016 Keeneland November sale, but brought $1.5 million in foal to Ghostzapper at FTKNOV '19. Laffina's now 2-year-old Pioneerof the Nile filly was a $430,000 FTKNOV weanling and $425,000 KEESEP yearling. TJCIS PPs
