| | Mayotte Impressed With Filly's First Start |
 | | And though his comments may suggest otherwise, Mayotte, at least from where he was sitting, believes the bay could, with a little tweaking, harness her energy and make a trip to the winner's circle sooner rather than later. |
 | | That was readily apparent with one glance at the teletimer, as Southwind Auroa paced a 1:58.1 mile, a credible effort that even caught Mayotte by surprise. |
 | | Still, Mayotte, who topped the $1-million mark in purse earnings for 14 consecutive years from 1983-1996, knows the fledgling filly, bred by New Jersey's Southwind Farm, has plenty to work on before she translates early-morning success into night-time triumphs. |
