Eased from the gate under Fernando De La Cruz, the filly settled in the back flight through the half in :47.23 before angling out to begin a furious rally, overhauling pacesetter Command the Stars (Complexity) in a matter of strides. With free rein and plenty of room to run at the top of the stretch, Life of Joy put on a show, winning her debut by 14 3/4 lengths with Cairosa (Cairo Prince) leading in the rest of a strung-out field. Life of Joy, a $375,000 Keeneland September grad last year, is the first foal and winner out of SP Jordan's Leo. This is the family of GISW Jeanne Jones (Nijinsky II) who is Life of Joy's third dam. Jordan's Leo, who last RNA'd at FTKNOV for $585,000 in 2022, saw her Epicenter yearling bring $700,000 at Keeneland last month. She also has an Elite Power weanling and is due in 2026 to Arabian Knight. Sales History: $375,000 Ylg '24 KEESEP. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $19,200. Click for the Equibase.com chart.
