Falling Creek Puts Silver Reunion's Line Back in the Winner's Circle for the Jones Silks

Falling Creek, a two-year-old filly by Upstart, has won in the silks of Brereton Jones, and the result reads as handsomely on the page as it did on the track. Her dam is Silver Reunion, a graded stakes winner who earned $254,403 in her own racing days and is herself a daughter of Harlan's Holiday. That is the kind of female line a buyer studies twice in the catalog before raising a hand, and here it has produced a juvenile who can run. Upstart, standing as the sire, keeps adding winning fillies to his ledger, and Falling Creek is the newest name on it. The Jones program has a long history of sending out horses of this sort, and a two-year-old filly scoring in its colors fits that history neatly. It is the kind of result that gets a pedigree page passed around the barn the next morning.
