With jockey Hector Berrios pumping his arm in celebration, Thought Process (f, 4, Collected–Creative Thinking, by Creative Cause) crossed the wire much the best in Saturday's GI Gamely Stakes at Santa Anita. It marked the chestnut's first Grade I score after three previous graded wins, including last out in the GII Buena Vista Stakes Feb. 28 at a mile on Santa Anita's lawn.When the gates flew, MGISW Rashmi (Oscar Performance) headed to the front, leading the field through :23.80 and :48.46 fractions as Thought Process tracked about two lengths behind. Positions unchanged into the final turn, Thought Process swung out to tackle Rashmi and did it with ease, kicking into another gear to sail under the wire unchallenged and about three lengths on top. Rashmi held second, while Take A Breath (GB) (Bated Breath {GB}) outfinished May Day Ready (Tapit) in a photo for third. Thought Process got the 1 1/8 miles of the Gamely in 1:47.51.Lifetime Record: 10-7-0-2.O-Estate of Brereton C. Jones, Little Red Feather Racing, and Madaket Stables LLC; B-Brereton C.
