6th-SAR, $85K, Msw, 3yo/up, f/m, 6 1/2f, post time: 4:05 p.m. ET
Chad Brown sends out Juddmonte Farms’ homebred CHAMBER (Tapit) for this belated career debut and she is bred to be any kind. The gray filly is the most recent to make the races from the farm’s standout dirt mare Sightseek (Distant View), whose seven Grade I victories included this track’s Go For Wand H., in which she galloped home better than 11 lengths clear at 15 cents on the dollar. Having produced GSP Raison d’Etat (A.P. Indy), Sightseek is a half-sister to the outstanding turf distaffer Tates Creek (Rahy), a dual Grade I winner and winner of an epic renewal of Saratoga’s GII Diana H. in 2002. The further female family includes Juddmonte’s French G1SW Etoile Montante (Miswaki), a two-time graded winner and Grade I placed upon her repatriation. Face It (Tapit) will go toe-to-toe with Chamber, on pedigree at a minimum, as she is a daughter of GSW Catboat (Tale of the Cat), making her a half-sister to treble GISW and 2011 CCA Oaks victrix It’s Tricky (Mineshaft). The latter is the dam of GSW & GISP Enticed (Medaglia d’Oro). TJCIS PPs

8th-SAR, $87K, AOC, 3yo, f, 1mT, post time: 5:19 p.m. ET
QUIVERY (Violence), a $30K OBSAUG yearling, fetched $360K as an OBSMAR breezer last spring, the best of her sire’s 20 fillies to go under the hammer in 2017 and third-best of 41 overall. A maternal granddaughter of SW Arianna’s Passion (Unbridled’s Song)–dam of MGSW Distorted Passion (Distorted Humor)–Quivery is kin to Old Bailey (To Honor and Serve), who won for the fifth time in 11 starts in Japan Aug. 4. Quivery’s year-younger half-brother Strong Union (Union Rags) was a $650K purchase by Robert Baker and William Mack and is in training at the Spa. Quivery won her first two starts and was a close fourth in last year’s G3 Prestige S. while under the care of Jeremy Noseda. TJCIS PPs
