Dreaminblue made his return to Oaklawn Park a winning one, taking the lead after a half-mile and powering to a three-length victory in the $135,000 Silks Overnight Stakes at Oaklawn Park on Friday, 19 Dec.
The three-year-old gelded son of Street Boss collected $74,925 for his second victory in 11 starts to improve his career earnings to $252,527.
Dreaminblue sat just off leaders Sharp Swinger and Amorosa through an opening quarter in :21.58; he moved up to join that pair while racing three-wide on the turn. The chestnut gelding took the lead through a half-mile in :44.90 and went on strongly to cover the six furlongs on a fast track in 1:09.10. Rafael Bejarano was aboard for trainer Randy Morse.
Dreaminblue was bred in Kentucky by Charles Kidder, Ralph Kinder and Erv Woolsey and is out of the mare Dreamy Blues (by Curlin). Dreamy Blues is a half sister to Shawklit Mint, winner of the G2 Vagrancy H., and hails from the immediate family of Graded Stakes winners and Graded Stakes-placed runners Mr. Shawklit, Her She Shawklit, Her She Kisses, Crafty Shaw, Money Multiplier, and Intense Holiday.
Dreaminblue is the 87th individual Stakes winner for Street Boss, whose runners have now earned close to A$176 million in prize money.
