Bast (foaled January 19, 2017 ) is a retired American Thoroughbred racehorse, best known for winning the 2019 Del Mar Debutante Stakes, Chandelier Stakes, and Starlet Stakes. [1]
Background
Bast is a bay filly with no markings and was the first foal out of the Arch mare Laffina. She was sold as a weanling at the Keeneland November Sale, where she was purchased for $200,000 by Bloodstock Investments V, and was sold again as a yearling at the Fasig-Tipton New York Sale, where she was purchased by Baoma Corporation for $500,000.
Career
Bast made her debut on August 11, 2019 at Del Mar in a 5 1/2 furlong Maiden Special Weight, where she finished second beaten by 1 1/4 lengths behind Inspiressa. She broke slowly, stalked in fourth position on the backstretch and turn, moved into second on the final turn and was clear of the third place finisher by 4 1/2 lengths. Her next race was the Grade 1 Del Mar Debutante Stakes, on August 31, where she stalked most of the race before winning by 8 3/4 lengths with a final time of 1:23.73 for 7 furlongs.[2] She followed this major victory up with another Grade 1 win, when she won the Chandelier Stakes on September 27 at Santa Anita. She stayed in second most of the race before dueling Comical for the lead, prevailing by a neck.[3] On November 1, she competed in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies, where she placed third behind British Idiom and Donna Veloce, beaten by 2 lengths. [4] She finished out her 2019 season with a third Grade 1 victory, this time at Los Alamitos in the December 7 Starlet Stakes, besting rival Donna Veloce by half-a-length.[5]
2020 season and retirement
She started her 2020 season on January 5, with a win at Santa Anita in the 7 furlong GII Santa Ynez Stakes. She stalked as usual and won under a tight hold by 1 3/4 lengths.Cite error: A <ref> tag is missing the closing </ref> (see the help page).
