Hidden Brook Farm and breeder Joseph McMahon and Anne McMahon’s graded stakes-placed Bank Sting will make a return to sprinting for her 6-year-old debut in Sunday’s $100,000 Broadway, a seven-furlong test for older New York-bred fillies and mares, at Aqueduct Racetrack.
Trained by John Terranova, Bank Sting was last seen earning her first graded placing in the one-mile Grade 3 Go for Wand on December 3 here, finishing 4 1/4 lengths behind runaway winner Dr B after a prominent trip under Joel Rosario. She finished 3 3/4 quarters lengths ahead of returning rival Betsy Blue, who exited that race to win two open-company stakes at the Big A. Bank Sting earned a career-best and co-field-high 96 Beyer Speed Figure for the effort.
“It was very impressive. It came back one of the fastest races she’s ever run,” Terranova said. “We thought she was ready to run a big one that day and that’s why we put her in there over the Stallion Series race and we were looking for a big run.”
Bank Sting has banked $652,050 through a lifetime record of 14-8-3-0. Her Big A record stands at an impressive 9-6-2-0, with three of those victories coming in stakes.
“She’s doing good and we’re looking forward to it,” Terranova said.
Dylan Davis, who was aboard for all thee of her Aqueduct stakes coups, has the call from post 4.
