Hustled to the front from her inside draw by Irad Ortiz, Jr, she raced under pressure while traveling nicely through a sharp opening quarter in :22.04. The bay began to let it out a notch rounding the far turn, kicked for home with a 6 1/2-length advantage and kept on motoring down the stretch to an eye-catching 9 3/4-length victory over stablemate Rivka (Ire) (No Nay Never) in 1:02.33. The half-sister to Glorious Empire (Ire) (Holy Roman Emperor {Ire}), GISW, $977,227 becomes the third winner for her freshman sire (by War Front). The Coolmore Ireland stallion stands at Castlehyde for €12,500. Love Reigns is the most recent progeny from her unraced dam Humble And Proud, a half-sister to English SW & MGSP Delsarte (Theatrical {Ire}). Love Reigns was purchased by Ben McElroy for €160,000, on behalf of Stonestreet, for €160,000 at Goffs Orby. 2nd-Keeneland, $51,276, Msw, 4-29, 2yo, f, 5 1/2fT, 1:02.33, fm, 9 3/4 lengths.LOVE REIGNS (IRE), f, 2, by U S Navy Flag 1st Dam: Humble And Proud (Ire), by Pivotal (GB) 2nd Dam: Delauncy (GB), by Machiavellian 3rd Dam: Casey (GB), by Caerleon Sales history: €160,000 Ylg '21 GOFOR.
