Some in this race carry good price tags but IRON WORKS (Distorted humor) The first thing that caught my eye was a $550,000 purchase from last year’s OBS April sale (:10 1/5) for MyRacehorse and Spendthrift Farm. The runner-up is a half-to-other winner from GISP Silverpocketsfull (Charlie India), she’s from MGSP Unforgotten (North Afleet) and a half to another graded bet horse. Specifically (Classic Empire) one under the gate is part of the first 3-year-old crop for its male, and is a $300,000 Fasig-Tipton Gulfstream graduate in 2021 after dying a quarter of the year. : 10 2/5. Awesome Aaron (Realistic jokes), out of a half-win for a runner-up bet group in Japan, hailed from the same sale; drilled a quarter into:10 1/5 before going to Bradley Thoroughbreds as an agent for William H. Lawrence for $350,000. Winner of Half to Class I Denman’s Call (Northern Afleet) by late Arrogate, $200,000 KEESEP and $100,000 OBS June Grad Anthracite coal, will break from the middle of the package. PP of TJCIS

After a eye-catching debut won on December 11 at Gulfstream Park, WinStar Ranch and Siena’s Farm DEAN’S LIST (Sightstown) will have his debut 3 years ago with a tight match allowance pitch. A winner of five lengths after performing a speed bout through fractions of: 21.70 and :44.36 halves, he earned 83 Beyer for the effort. The pony came out of Mildly Offensive, a half-sister who won double with MGSW It’s No Joke and SW Keep Laughing. Dean’s List adds Lasix here for Todd Pletcher. PP of TJCIS

Purebred Whisper Hill Farm CHARGE IT (Tapit) will represent the family of the 2013 Broodmare of the Year, Take Charge Lady (Dehere) through his dam, I’ll Take Charge (Indian Charlie). The second foal for the foal, purchased for $2.2 million by Whisper Hill from the September 2013 Keeneland sale, became the first foal to enter the race. His second dam needs a little introduction, her line produces three males as well as the recently classified and listed stake winners As Time Goes By (American pharoah) and Courvoisier (Tapit). Next to that in the gate is Touch code (Honor code), half for the 3-year-old champion West Bank (Flatter), the first 2-year-olds will arrive this year. Their dam, 2-year-old champion and GI Breeders’ Cup champion Juvenile Fillies Cafting, is also the second dam of three millionaires in Japan.
