Danny A. Eplin’s unbeaten Dreamfyre (Flameaway – Appreciating) is 3-for-3 and a graded stakes-winner after gamely taking Santa Anita’s $202,000, Gr. III Surfer Girl Stakes.

    Taking the lead at the start, she was headed briefly on the turn by fellow OBS Spring graduate Buttercream Babe (Twirling Candy – Runway Ready) but refused to yield, battling back down the stretch and prevailing by a neck at the wire. It’s the third stakes victory in as many starts for the 2-year-old filly by Flameaway, consigned by S G V Thoroughbreds (Steven Venosa), Agent, to the 2023 OBS Spring Sale, and sold for $140,000 after turning in an Under Tack eighth in :9 4/5. Trained by O. J. Jauregui, she’s a winner on dirt and turf and has earned $285,000.
