FIRST SAMURAI 2YO BECOMES “TDN RISING STAR”

EXECUTIVEPRIVILEGE, the $650,000 OBS April sales topper by FIRST SAMURAI, cruised to a docile 4 1/2-length debut score on Hollywood Parks’ all weather surface. After a very slow start out of the gate because of a problem filly next to her, she was allowed to settle into stride in this 5 1/2-furlong Maiden Special Weight race. Rallying three wide into the stretch,EXECUTIVEPRIVILEGE gained the lead nearing the sixteenth pole and cruised home under a long hold late. Bred by Betz/DJ Stable/Kidder/J Betz/Robenalt, the newest “TDN Rising Star” races for Karl Watson, Michael E. Pegram & Paul Weitman and is trained by Bob Baffert.
