DEFUNDED (g, 4, Dialed–Wind Caper, by Touch Gold) raised anxiety with the win over the GI Awesome Again S. at Santa Anita, the “Win and You Join” award for the GI Breeders’ Cup Classic. The 5-1 hit goes straight ahead, marking the early split as: 22.67 and: 46.70. His favorite stable friend National Grammar (Tonalist) appeared dangerous in a cross, but Defunded continued to find a way to win with a score of 1:49.38. The second GI Gold Cup at Santa Anita on May 30, Defunded set the pace in the GII San Diego H. July 30 before fading to seventh and sixth in the GII Pat O’Brien S Aug 27. Sales history: $210,000 yrl ’19 HOLD. Lifetime record: 12-4-3-1.
