Brody’s Cause colt breaks maiden in Capote S.

After a close second in his Aug. 1 maiden debut at Del Mar, Enbarr came back to get his first victory in Saturday’s $75,000 Capote S. at Los Alamitos Race Course.

The 2-year-old Brody’s Cause colt, trained by Bob Baffert, won the 6 ½-furlong contest by a length over Montebello, coming from a few lengths off the pace to engage the front-running Montebello at the head of the stretch, then winning a protracted stretch duel to stop the timer in 1:16.33 on a fast track.

Enbar is owned by the Baoma Corporation and has banked $57,500 in his two starts. The bay colt was bred by H. Allen Poindexter, Mark Toothaker, Denny Minnehand and Wynnstay LLC. Enbar’s dam, Star of Gallantry, is also the dam of stakes-placed Carimba.

Enbar was a $200,000 purchase by his owner at the 2020 Fasig-Tipton October Yearling sale. Brody’s Cause currently has seven lots remaining in this year’s Keeneland September Yearling sale, which runs through Friday, Sept. 24.
