SECURE CONNECTION 2025 GRADUATE

NBS Grad Five Bars bumped hard with rivals on both sides while off a step slow then checked sharply while squeezed back between horses, spotted the front many lengths angled to the inside early then was urged along at the rear, moved from the rail to the three path on the turn, turned into upper stretch under a drive, rallied into the final furlong and closed strongly to get up between foes late and prevail. Congrats to all winning connections breeder/owner Stuart S. Janney III LLC., trainer Claude R. McGaughey III and jockey Joel Rosario!
