Usha raced in mid-pack down the backstretch, split horses near the quarter pole and then drew off in the stretch to romp by 5 ¼ lengths for trainer Bob Baffert, becoming the first Grade 1 winner for her sire, Tiz the Law.

“Usha showed up today,” Baffert told Santa Anita publicity. “She came back here and that worked well. We expected this when I shipped her to Kentucky, and didn’t win a race, but today she showed up.”

Usha was purchased by her owners for $600,000 at the 2024 OBS April Sale from the On Point Training & Sales consignment after breezing in :9 4/5.

The Dec. 28 opening day card at Santa Anita also saw Nysos (Nyquist – Zetta Z, by Bernardini) edge stablemate and fellow Grade 1 winner Nevada Beach by a head in the Grade 2, $200,000 Laffit Pincay Jr. Stakes going 1 1/16 miles on dirt. Both are trained by Baffert.

The victory added to a banner year for Nysos, who prevailed in last month’s Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile (G1) at Del Mar and now has won seven of eight career starts with $1,238,500 in earnings. He was purchased for $550,000 out of the Best A Luck Farm consignment by Donato Lanni, agent for owner Baoma Corp, at the 2023 OBS April Sale after breezing in :9 4/5. Also listed on the owner’s line for Nysos as lessee’s are Susan Magnier, Derrick Smith, and Michael B.

With the victory, the 6-year-old horse earned a berth for the $3 million Pegasus World Cup Invitational (G1) Jan. 24. The son of Exaggerator, who also captured the 2022 Harlan’s Holiday, notched his 10th graded stakes victory during a career in which he’s earned more than $3.7 million under the care of trainer Saffie Joseph, Jr.

“He’s 6 going on 7, but trust me, his works were as good as he ever worked, and we were quietly optimistic that he would run well,” Joseph told Gulfstream Park publicity. “But you never know. I think you have to ride the horse patient. I think that’s one of the keys to him.”

Skippylongstocking was purchased by Alonso for $37,000 out of the Top Line Sales consignment at the 2021 OBS April Sale after breezing an eighth in :10 2/5.

The Dec. 20 card at Gulfstream Park also saw Ms. Bucchero (Bucchero-Give Glory to God, by Mutakddim), owned and trained by Diane Morici, rally along the inside down the stretch to win the $125,000 Sugar Swirl, a race where five of the six entrants were OBS grads.

“This was a really good test for him,” trainer Brad Cox told Churchill Downs publicity. “He won very impressively last time. Today he had to show a different dimension and really dig down late to get by. It’s very important to get a horse like this started early on the Road to the Kentucky Derby. Hopefully he can bring us right back here in the spring.”

Fast Market has raced in routes and sprints on both the main track and grass for trainer John Terranova but has established a comfort level on turf while stretching out. She notched her second win in her last three starts following a maiden-breaking score going one mile on the Aqueduct grass in September.

“She’s just a very nice filly. She finally put it all together her last few starts and it’s more of the same,” Terranova told NYRA publicity. “She’s just getting better and better. She’s a later foal, so she took a little while for us to figure out, but we finally got it all right and she’s been real consistent and we can’t wait for next season.”

Fast Market was purchased at the 2024 OBS June Sale by her owners for $350,000 from the Majestic consignment after breezing in :10 flat.
