Seismic Beauty absolutely dominated in the G2 Santa Margarita Stakes yesterday at Santa Anita, formerly won by such talents as Zenyatta, Azeri and Bayakoa!
She hopped slightly at the start, but quickly recovered to take the lead and clear off. From that point, she looked like a winner every step of the way, doling out splits of :23.05, :46.25 and 1:09.84 before shrugging off favored stablemate Splendora en route to an open-length success.
We had high expectations for today, but it’s fair to say Seismic Beauty might have even exceeded those—that was as strong a performance as we could have hoped for and certainly puts her among the best distaffers in the country.
We’ll enjoy the excitement of today, see how she bounces out of it and start plotting a course towards the G1 Breeders’ Cup Distaff.
Follow-up:
Seismic Beauty earned a 104 Beyer Speed Figure for Sunday's romp--that's the fastest figure run by a female this year at a route distance.
Her E-speed figure coming out of the race yesterday was 106, but that could bounce around a bit in the next few days. We'll keep this post updated.
