Miss Mandate’s dam is a full sister to the top handicap horse RON THE GREEK and the second dam Flambeau is a full sister to the dam of multiple Grade 1 placed MUSKET MAN. Miss Mandate may be slow to mature and the distance should help. Watch for her when she switches back to dirt

AMERICAN PHAROAH (Pioneerof the Nile - Littleprincessemma, by Yankee Gentleman) Race record: 2-1-0-0 ($181,500) Trainer: Bob Baffert Owner: Zayat Stables, LLC Breeder: Zayat Stables Auction: FTSAUG13 $300K
Pedigree: American Pharoah is only the second foal out of his dam. Littleprincessemma failed to hit the board in two starts and she’s a half to the graded stakes winning sprinters MISTY ROSETTE and STORM WOLF. The colt’s second dam was also a sprinter over dirt and turf. American Pharoah has a middle distance over speed pedigree. His sire’s offspring have won up to 1 1/16 miles over dirt and 1 1/8 miles over the turf.
Outlook: In capturing the Del Mar Futurity, American Pharoah was the first maiden since River Special in 1992 to have won the race. He’s also the only one of Pioneerof the× Nile’s progeny to win over the Del Mar Polytrack. American Pharoah will get a test over dirt in the Frontrunner Stakes, and could go to the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile as the favorite should he win. He should develop into the typical, speedy Baffert protégé with distance issues past 1 1/6 to 1 1/8 miles.
Don'tpassjudgement is running September 14th in a maiden special weight for 2 year old fillies going one mile on turf at Gulfstream. She will be ridden by Luca Panici. She is trained by Joseph Arboritanza and owned by Arboritanza Racing LLC.
