Uncle Mo’s Kingsbarns Runs To The Money For Todd Pletcher And Spendthrift Farm

[Wandering Eyes]

8th-Gulfstream, $70,000, Msw, 1-14, 3yo, 1m, 1:39.18, ft, 1 3/4 lengths.

KINGSBARNS (c, 3, Uncle Mo–Lady Tapit {GSP}, by Tapit), an $800,000 2-year-old purchase by Spendthrift Farm out of the Gulfstream Sale last year, rewarded his backers as the 3-1 favorite in his debut start. Fourth in the early going while racing a path off the rail, Kingsbarns began to inch up into the far turn and found racing room between rivals as the top trio straightened into the lane. Game Warden (Tapit) closed with a run to be second at 19-1 but Kingsbarns was clear into the final furlong for the 1 3/4-length win. Out of a half-sister to GISW Gozzip Girl (Dynaformer), Kingsbarns has a 2-year-old half-brother by Union Rags who was exported to Saudi Arabia last year and a yearling half-brother by Gun Runner. Lady Tapit visited Munnings for a 2023 foal. Sales History: $250,000 Ylg '21 FTSAUG; $800,000 2yo '22 FTFMAR. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $42,000.
