McKulick (GB) (Frankel {GB}–Astrelle {Ire}, by Makfi {GB}), second in both the GII Edgewood S. and GIII Regret S. at Churchill Downs this season, delivered an emotional win for trainer Chad Brown in Saturday's GI Belmont Oaks Invitational.

Given a 5-1 chance from her rail draw, she sat a good trip in fifth, began to roll while three-wide on the far turn and came charging down the center to defeat With The Moonlight (Ire) (Frankel {GB}) by two widening lengths to key an exacta for her leading sire. Consumer Spending (More Than Ready), also trained by Brown, was third.

Frankel is now the sire of 24 Grade I/Group 1 winners worldwide.

McKulick is named in honor after Brown's first-ever employee, bookkeeper Mary McKulick. McKulick passed away in October 2020 at the age of 67 after losing a battle with cancer. Saturday is also the birthday of Brown's mentor, the late Hall of Famer Bobby Frankel.

Sales history: 180,000gns yrl '20 TATOCT.

Lifetime Record: 5-2-2-1.
