I’m a Rock steady in maiden victory

Gemologist’s I’m a Rock powered to a 4 1/2-length maiden special weight win Saturday evening at Retama Park, the seventh winner for her top-10 Freshman sire.

I’m a Rock, who was bred in Kentucky by WinStar Farm, is out of Purrfect Song, who is a half-sister to Hollywood Breeders’ Cup Oaks (G2) winner and Kentucky Oaks (G1) runner-up Santa Catarina. I’m a Rock is owned by Kathy Stephens and Dewey Smith.
