Continued from COVER Starship Nterprise appeared the winner 100 yards from home when Key Biscayne produced a sudden acceleration to get the lead in the final jumps and finish a neck in front of Starship Nterprise in 1:36.90 on the fast track. Global Brand was another two-and-a- quarter lengths back in third followed by Thissmytime, Mo of the West, Elusive Molly and Florida-bred Heiressindy. Drapes, Eskimo’s Boss, Kahiko, Lovely Luvy, Shifty She, Sky Chaser and Snow Shower (GB) were scratched. “I had worked her and I worked another horse I’ve won on for Arindel. I loved how they worked,” Sutherland said. “I had so much confidence going into the race. I just love the way [Key Biscayne] handles everything.” Sutherland, who is riding at the Gulf- stream Spring/Summer Meet for the first time, won earlier on the card with Florida-bred Hot Babe ($5.20) in Race 3, Hard Ten ($2.80) in Race 8 and Florida- bred Clapton ($20.20) in Race 9. Through Saturday, Sutherland is ranked ninth in the local jockey standings with 30 wins. Key Biscayne paid $14.40 to win. “I’m so grateful. I’m grateful to God, and I’m grateful to Chantal Sutherland and Key Biscayne/RYAN THOMPSON PHOTO Gulfstream for being so amazing,” Sutherland said after the Monroe. “I’m so happy it’s worked out the way it did. Thanks to [trainer] Kenny McPeek, who helped me get fit to do this during the winter.” After taking a break during the COVID-19 pandemic, Suther- land galloped horses for McPeek at Gulfstream this past winter during the track’s Championship Season. The 4-year-old Key Biscayne has now won four races with two seconds and two thirds from 14 lifetime starts while earning $244,190 from the barn of trainer Juan Alvarado. Slow to develop, the Arindel homebred daughter of the farm’s stallion Brethern out of Boa Twelve, by Lemon Drop Kid did not win until her sixth ca- reer start against state-bred, special weight maidens at Gulfstream in May of last year. She won her next start against first condition, $16,000 optional claiming allowance runners on the turf before later taking on the Grade 2 Lake Placid going a mile-and-one- eighth on the turf at Saratoga in July where she finished fourth be- hind winner Speaktomeofsummer. She was then third in the mile-and-three-sixteenths $500,000 Saratoga Oaks won by An- toinette on grass in August and fifth in Magic Attitude’s Belmont Oaks (G1) going a mile-and-one-quarter on the turf on Sept. 19. She then won a first level allowance race taken off the turf at Bel- mont in October in her last race of the year. In her first start of 2021, she finished seventh in the $75,000 Ginger Punch won by Shifty She over a mile-and-one-sixteenth on the turf at Gulfstream on June 12.

The one-mile BWI Turf Cup for 3-year-olds and older anchored four grass stakes worth $500,000 in purses, following wins by In- dian Lake in the $100,000 Bald Eagle Derby for 3-year-olds, Can the Queen in the $100,000 Sensible Lady Turf Dash and Tightly Twisted in the $100,000 Big Dreyfus, both for fillies and mares. Ridden for the first time by Victor Carrasco for trainer Mike Maker, Field Pass earned his seventh career win and fourth in graded company after the Transylvania (G3) on turf and Ontario Derby (G3) and Jeff Ruby (G3) on synthetics last year.

Bred, trained and co-owned by Elizabeth Merryman in partner- ship with celebrity chef Bobby Flay, Caravel was third in her first start in New York in the License Fee on April 30 at Belmont Park at six furlongs. After a cutback in ground when capturing The Very One on May 14 at Pimlico and the Goldwood on June 25 at Monmouth Park, the gray or roan daughter of Mizzen Mast successfully returned to the Empire State notching her first graded stakes triumph by two-and- a-half lengths under jockey Irad Ortiz Jr. Breaking near the hedge in the six-horse field, Caravel rated in third as Robin Sparkles flaunted her usual pacesetting tactics with Jakarta, who raced for purse money only, to her outside in second
