Bloodstock agent Clark Shepherd reports that SUMMER IN SARATOGA (f, 4, Hard Spun–Love Theway Youare {GISW, $372,990}, by Arch) brushed with a foe early, went three wide on the first turn and settled on the outside. The Hard Spun filly went three then four wide on the far turn, was asked for more at the five-sixteenth pole and advanced to make a five wide bid. Summer in Saratoga then took the lead, responded well in the final furlong and prevailed under strong urging. Lifetime Record: 7-2-1-2, $95,320.
