Trained by Wesley Ward, who also trained his sire, Mae Never No races for the
Ice Wine Stable, who raced No Nay Never in partnership with Coolmore. Mae Never No was a debut winner at Belmont on May 3 and took on the colts when third in the Tremont Stakes at Belmont at her second start on June 8.
Sent out a short priced favourite for this five furlong dash, she bolted away to win by seven lengths.
"She was ready to go and once they opened the gate, she was gone and it was game over," said winning jockey Jose Ferrer.
"I was worried someone might come outside me, but she was so sharp today there was nothing to worry about. I had everything my own way and she made it look easy. I think she has a big future. She has speed, but she will also rate if you ask her to. And she's a sweetheart to ride."
The third stakes-winner for No Nay Never, she is the first winner for her Grade I placed dam Sweet Shirley Mae.
No Nay Never is the sire of 16 first crop winners and is the leading European first season sire by winners and earnings.
The two best turf sprinting sons of the late great Scat Daddy, No Nay Never and Caravaggio, are set to visit Australia in the spring for Coolmore.
Priced at $19,250, No Nay Never is on his third trip to Australia with his first weanlings selling for up to $90,000 at the Magic Millions National Weanling Sale.
A lightning fast dark grey powerhouse of a sprinter, Caravaggio starred at Royal Ascot two years running winning the Group II Coventry Stakes at two and then the Group I Commonwealth Cup at three. Caravaggio is priced at $33,000.
No Nay Never and Caravaggio are the only sons of the late great Scat Daddy (sire of US Triple Crown winner Justify) available to Australian breeders this spring.
