He finished 1st of 6. Here is the race replay:
From Blood Horse:
Del Mar Waspirant also broke through the maiden ranks Saturday, but on the opposite coast at Del Mar. The 2-year-old Union Rags colt is out of Pam and Martin Wygod's dual grade 1-winning Storm Cat mare Life Is Sweet.
Bred by the Wygods, Waspirant is campaigned in partnership with Lessee Wygod and trained by John Shirreffs.
Making his second start Saturday, he raced just off the pace under Umberto Rispoli, then closed quickly late in the stretch of the one-mile contest to score by three-quarters of a length in a final time of 1:40.03 on a fast track. In his Aug. 8 debut at six furlongs on the Southern California track, Waspirant raced in sixth under Rispoli but had little to give at the end and finished fourth.
FWIW, even as far back as April the training farms were being completed booked out bc so many breeders expected having to keep sales yearlings. A bit of a problem when more two year olds than usual hadn’t/haven’t moved to the track yet.
