After breaking her maidenhood when she debuted at Ellis Park on July 30, Private Creed was moved to Saratoga to compete for the Skidmore S.Astern {Aus}). Back in Kentucky, the second 5-2 pick behind the overwhelmingly beloved Sharp Aza Tack, racing with the flash for the first time, used the same racing style from his first two starts – track in third place behind the pacesetter Revere Note (Revolution) with their favorite race between them. Defeated to his opponent by a pole quarter pass, Private Creed pitted Sharp Aza Tack in the sixteenth final and put him better near home for a nasty three-quarters length. .
“The one horse (Sharp Aza Tack) is very fast,” said winning jockey Joel Rosario. “My horse is very comfortable, it is happy where it is. He’s settled nicely into the first leg. For a second, I don’t know, because it took him a while to get started. He just found another device. He broke well and I was right there. Just a good trip. “
$155,000 A Fasig-Tipton Midlantic Sale grad (: 10.3), Private Creed has a half-brother with Vino Rosso and a half-brother who is weaned by Complication.
