The filly, bred by O’Sullivan Farms, Mama Marge (Golden Years), confirmed in the race how well she had performed in training. With tremendous ease, the horse trained by Javier Contreras outdistanced the favorite Navy Band (Maclean’s Music) to widen the gap in the home stretch, completing 4 1/2 furlongs in a time of 52″49 seconds.
Uruguayan jockey Juan Mauricio Núñez skillfully guided her along the rail, ensuring a clean trip for this promising juvenile who shows potential for further progress. Mama Marge surpassed Direct The Cat (Redirect), who finished fourth, and managed to overtake the favorite Navy Band. Then came Honestly Olin’s (Fiber Sonde), another horse presented by Javier Contreras, which ran close but without posing a threat, merely making an acceptable debut.
Mama Marge is a daughter of Golden Years, sired by Not For Love, out of a dam by Fiber Sonde, making her the first foal of Ghost Fever. And she’s starting off on a high note. Her pedigree includes a solid lineage, with her second dam being Ghost Canyon (Indian Charlie), who also produced Never Compromise (30 starts with 15 wins at Charles Town), Bullets Fever, undefeated in eight starts and a multiple Stakes winner, and Hidden Canyon, another prominent Stakes winner. Talent runs deep in her bloodline; it’s no coincidence.
