Greatest Honour filly unleashes tremendous stretch run in Saratoga maiden score

B Yutifil Carly flew through the Saratoga stretch to tally a stunning come-from-behind maiden special weight win on Saturday afternoon at the historical oval.

The 2-year-old filly is the second winner this week for First-Crop sire Greatest Honour, whose 2026 fee is $7,500 S&N.

After a very tardy start in the 5 ½-furlong race, B Yutiful Carly found herself at the back of the 10-horse field. Unhurried down the backstretch and into the turn, she commenced her winning move midway on the bend. Moving between horses rapidly, she still had some eight lengths to make up at the top of the stretch. Undeterred, she cut into the margin rapidly to take the lead inside the final sixteenth, winning by three lengths.

B Yutiful Carly was bred in New York by Dr. John and Laura McDermott and is owned by Triple B Stables LLC. Her dam Little Brave is a sister to millionaire Red Rifle and two-time stakes winner Notte d’Oro.
