Saratoga Maidens, Presented by KeenelandRepole Stable's Pinpoint (Not This Time), a well-beaten fifth behind subsequent GIII Sanford S. winner and GII Saratoga Special S. morning-line favorite Booked (Yaupon) on debut at Saratoga June 7, looked like a different horse at second asking at the Spa Saturday.Overlooked at 12-1, the $300,000 Keeneland September graduate was hustled to the front by Ricardo Santana, Jr. and cleared the field of seven through an opening quarter in :22.93. He was in control at the top of the stretch and kept on rolling down the stretch to win going away by 6 1/4 lengths.Cybersteel (Cyberknife) held off Jackpot Rocket (Tapit) for second.The final time for six furlongs was 1:11.50.Dream More (Gun Runner), a $1.5-million KEESEP yearling and half-brother to the brilliant MGISW Clairiere (Curlin), was scratched.“He's a durable colt and we got some really solid breezes into him after that debut,” winning trainer Todd Pletcher said in the winner's circle on Saratoga Live. “Immediately after that race I was kinda thinking this might be a grass horse. He just kept getting a little better each week. I think the start and the fitness was a big advantage today against a lot of first-time starters.”Pinpoint's SW & GSP dam Magic Circle (Kantharos), a $330,000 Keeneland November purchase by Magna Carta Bloodstock in 2022, is also responsible for a yearling colt by Good Magic and a McKinzie filly of this year. She was bred back to Sierra Leone.4th-Saratoga, $115,000, Msw, 8-1, 2yo, 6f, 1:11.50, ft, 6 1/4 lengths.PINPOINT (c, 2, Not This Time–Magic Circle {SW & GSP, $228,000}, by Kantharos) Sales history: $300,000 Ylg '25 KEESEP.
