Entering the final three furlongs of Saturday's GII Fasig-Tipton Fleur de Lis Stakes, a 'Win and You're In' challenge race for the GI Breeders' Cup Distaff at Keeneland on Oct. 31, it appeared that 'TDN Rising Star' presented by Hagyard Shred The Gnar (Into Mischief) would win off in splendid isolation. But second betting choice IMMERSIVE (f, 4, Nyquist–Gap Year, by Bernardini) found a second wind coming into the final eighth of a mile to put away the odds-on pop before holding off a late rally from Regaled (Mohaymen).Off at 8-5 after trading around even-money for a good portion of the betting, the 2024 champion 2-year-old filly was ridden aggressively from gate two by Irad Ortiz, Jr., but Luis Saez was equally positive aboard Shred The Gnar and the two matched motors through a half in :47.08, putting eight to 10 lengths on Regaled in third.Shred The Gnar looked to be going much the better of the top two and Ortiz, Jr. was very busy astride Immersive as they reached the top of the lane, but the chalk began to paddle a furlong from home, and Immersive kept on bravely as Regaled made a race of it late. Final time for the nine furlongs on a drying-out strip was 1:50.51.Splendora (Audible) was a program scratch by trainer Bob Baffert.Lifetime Record: 10-6-4-0.
