Bear’s Future, one of six first-crop winners for Rockport Harbor, made his first added-money event attempt a successful one as he won the Listed Swynford Stakes at Woodbine going away on September 12.
Content to track the winner’s in third, the two-year-old colt made his move entering the lane and then began to pull away in deep stretch for a three and one-half length victory.
Bred by Kidder, Cole, J. K. Griggs & Linda Griggs, Bear’s Future is out of the unraced Belong To Me mare Prairie Pie, a half-sister to G2 winner and multiple G1 stakes horse Private Treasure – herself dam of two Stakes winners to date.
Rockport Harbor, unbeaten as a two-year-old, is one of the top five freshman sires standing in Kentucky for 2010 to date.
