CHASING THE SON (c, 2, Maxfield--Purely a Dream {GSW, $138,769}, by Pure Prize) debuted with a productive third going five panels here on May 26 and was given a 2-1 chance to get the job done while adding some extra yardage this time. Breaking like a shot from his outside stall, the bay scampered to the front through a :24.93 opening quarter mile. Well in control with his ears up through a half in :49.55, the colt was given the signal midway on the turn. Drawing clear from there, Chasing the Son was not to be caught late, crossing the wire a geared down 13 1/4-length winner over Gamerboy (Catalina Cruiser). Ferrous (Nyquist) was third. Grade III winner Purely a Dream produced a colt by Arcangelo last term and another by Cody's Wish this season. Sales history: $145,000 RNA Ylg '25 KEESEP. Lifetime Record: 2-1-0-1, $22,400.
