BUGLE (f, 3, War Front–Chatham {MSP, $156,431}, by Maria’s Mon), a close second as the favorite on debut over a grassy mile at Churchill Downs Nov. 9, missed by only a nose once again as the 6-5 crowd’s pick over 1 1/16 miles of Gulfstream lawn Dec. 11.

Ruefully broke well and set the pace on the inside. Still in the lead around the final turn, she did not back down and held on for the win under a brisk hand ride by jockey Miguel Mena. Ruefully is trained by Joe Sharp and gives Stone Farm a great start to the new year!
