Crunched into long odds-on favoritism dropping out of a third in the open-company Bolton Landing Stakes at Saratoga on Aug. 26, Extravaganzoo (Golden Pal) made no mistakes en route to becoming the second black-type winner for her leading freshman sire (by Uncle Mo) in the Joseph A. Gimma Stakes.Away only fairly from the inside stall, the $375,000 graduate of last year's Fasig-Tipton New York-Bred sale was not rushed off her feet and was allowed to settle at the tail of this six-strong field as longshot Legacy Lady (Highly Motivated) showed the way through moderate fractions.With Manny Franco sitting hard against his filly for the run into the final 2 1/2 furlongs, Extravaganzoo was asked to split horses about four off the inside in upper stretch, shifted in at the furlong grounds and proved a facile winner.“Nice win,” said Peter Gulyas, assistant to trainer George Weaver. “I spoke with [jockey] Manny [Franco] after because I was a little bit worried when he was stuck behind horses, but he rode her confidently and said he still had so much horse left. He wasn't worried about that trip at all.”Having dropped away abruptly to finish a distant last of five on Keeneland debut at the back end of the spring meet, Extravaganzoo made light work of a field of NY-bred maidens at the Spa July 18 ahead of her first black-type placing in the Bolton Landing.Produced by a half-sister to SW & MGSP Brigand (Flatter) and SW Sky Music (Sky Mesa), Extravaganzoo has a yearling half-brother by Army Mule that sold to Miguel Clement for $270,000 at this year's FTNAUG sale and a colt by City of Light foaled Apr. 6. Prisoner's Dilemma was bred back to Vekoma for her 2027 produce.JOSEPH A.
