DRESS UP is strutting her stuff this summer!
DRESS UP took her show on the road and kicked up her heels at Charles Town in July. Next came a trip to the Maryland State Fair in Timonium – and Dark Hollow Farm and Hillwood Stable’s homebred filly enjoyed the family atmosphere and fair festivities with a three and a quarter-length romp in the Friday, August 30 allowance feature against older runners.
Teamed up once again with Travis Dunkelberger, the striking gray 3-year-old turned in a virtual replay of her six and a half-furlong allowance win at Charles Town on July 28. Leading at every call in both tests, the Rodney Jenkins trainee easily held off her competition and cruised home by daylight.
With back-to-back wins, DRESS UP has increased her earnings to $65,740 from seven starts.
Black-type is abundant in DRESS UP’s family. She is the third winner from as many foals for Dress Grey, a stakes-winning daughter of Lion Hearted. Her second dam, Chemise (by Secret Hello), produced four stakes horses from 10 starters – Dress Grey, Maryland Million Ladies S. winner Miss Lombardi, Maryland Juvenile Filly Championship S. winner Coquettish and five-time stakes-placed Hello Lover, and earner of $451,255 and twice graded stakes-placed. The latter two are also by Not For Love.
The next event circled on DRESS UP’s social calendar is the Jameela Stakes for fillies and mares at Laurel Park on September 21. Already turning heads, she will look to make another grand entrance in her stakes debut.
