Second-time starter IN SCOPE (f, 3, Gun Runner–Brielle's Appeal, by English Channel), third behind the eye-popping 'TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard' Mashallah (Maxfield) with a 90 Beyer Speed Figure Apr. 23, went two better Friday over a sloppy track at Churchill Downs to earn the moniker herself.Drawn wide in a deep field, the 2-1 favorite kept her face clear in this stretch out to one mile, racing prominently several paths off the rail under Axel Concepcion. Poised just off the flank of leader Aegis (Essential Quality), In Scope had plenty of response when asked to get after that rival just outside of the furlong marker.Finding the slop just fine, the favorite splashed home a commanding winner several lengths ahead of Bodacious Bay (Not This Time) and Fast Gun (Gun Runner) who dueled for the minor placings in a final time of 1:36.55. Lifetime Record: 2-1-0-1.O-G. Watts Humphrey, Jr.; B-Dixiana Farms LLC; T-George R. Arnold II. Sales History: $335,000 ylg '24 KEESEP.
