Kimari Runs Down Lady Rocket Late To Win Gallant Bloom

Kimari won the GII Gallant Bloom S. at the Belmont at Aqueduct meet Sunday. Joel Rosario was riding Kimari. Kimri is preparing for the GI Breeders' Cup F/M Sprint. She will go back to Keeneland tomorrow. She was sold to Coolmore's M.V. Magnier for $2.7 million. The filly was injured for seven months. It was her first start since she returned from injury. Her trainer Wesley Ward hopes she will be good enough for Breeder's Cup. He believes she is. If she gets there, Joel will have to work his way out.

Kimari is a daughter of graded winner Cozze Up Lady. She has a yearling half-brother by Constitution who sold for $1.3 million two weeks ago at Keeneland September. Cozzene is her second dam. The third dam is Maha Al Iman, by Pulpit'TDN Rising Star'.
