Champion Equine's Road To Midnight (Roadster) showed some early speed in his June 20 debut versus fellow Florida-breds before giving way to beat just one rival home in sixth. Punters were willing to give him the benefit of the doubt pari-mutuelly in this open-company contest and he loaded the 7-2 third choice for this first spin on the grass Monday afternoon at Gulfstream Park.Quickly away from the outside alley, the $100,000 OBS April graduate came across the field and enjoyed a relatively hassle-free time of things up front through a quarter in :22.14.Moving very nicely nearing the stretch, he ran up the score to the tune of 6 1/2 lengths under the line to become the sixth winner for his first-crop sire (by Quality Road). The debuting Lord Henry (Temple City) was second, while favored Vermont (Vekoma) copped a hard check on the turn and retreated in the final stages to finish at the tail.The winner's dam, a granddaughter of Canadian champion 3-year-old filly Gandria (Green Dancer), is also responsible for a yearling colt by Win Win Win and was most recently bred back to the latter stallion.6th-Gulfstream, $68,200, Msw, 7-13, 2yo, 5fT, :56.67, fm, 6 1/2 lengths.ROAD TO MIDNIGHT (c, 2, Roadster–Midnight Candy, by Midnight Lute) Sales history: $100,000 2yo '26 OBSAPR.
