Fabricate became Speightster’s second winner on June 26 with a determined half-length victory in a six-furlong maiden special weight at Churchill Downs.
Getting a good stalking trip along the rail under Brian Hernandez, Jr., Fabricate came around the leader in upper stretch and eventually took the top spot, then held Bahama Mischief at bay in the late stages to secure the win.
Fabricate was bred in Kentucky Greydawn Stables and Machmer Hall. She is the second foal out of Counterfactual and from the family of Grade 2 winner Evansville Slew.
Fabricate joins Queen Arella, who won her debut May 29 in a Churchill maiden special weight as well. Speightster and fellow WinStar freshman sire Exaggerator are currently two of only three First-Crop sires with multiple winners.
