Trainer:Carl Nafzger Jockey:Calvin Borel Foaling Date: 2-23-2004 Pedigree: Street Cry - Bedazzle by Dixieland Band Dosage Profile: 8-1-12-0-1 Dosage Index/CD: 2.14 0.68 *dual qualifier* 2006 Record: 5 starts 2-1-2 $1,178,200 Best Beyer Figure: 110 Note: Never worse than 3rd in 5 starts lifetime. He was 3rd in the Arlington-Washington Futurity and the Breeders' Futurity at Keeneland, then won the Breeders' Cup Juvenile by 10 lengths. They only plan on racing him twice before the Derby, which is less than the normal 3-4. Made his first start of the year in the Tampa Bay Derby where he won by a narrow nose over Any Given Saturday. Closed on the slow pace in the Blue Grass to finish second by a nose. Got the perfect trip in the Kentucky Derby to rally from 19th to win by 2 1/4 lengths. Had the lead in the stretch of the Preakness but got caught at the wire by Curlin to finish second by a head.
