New York-breds Shine on Big Apple Showcase Day at Belmont Park
By Jenny Kellner
ELMONT, N.Y. – A pair of scintillating performances kicked off the first two of seven stakes on the inaugural Big Apple Showcase Day at Belmont Park, with undefeated Lovely Syn streaking to a 10 ¼ length victory in the $125,000 Bouwerie and the redoubtable Saginaw powering to his fourth straight win of the year in the $100,000 Affirmed Success Handicap.
 
Lovely Syn, ridden by Javier Castellano, popped out of the gate in front and never looked back as she blazed through an opening quarter-mile in 21.95 seconds and a half in 44.34.
