Nymue’s Treasure makes it 2-for-2 at Turfway

A switch in tactics by jockey Malcolm Franklin proved to be no problem for Nymue’s Treasure, who made it 2-for-2 yesterday with a come-from-behind victory racing 6 1/2 furlongs at Turfway Park. The 3-year-old daughter of Treasure Beach had broken her maiden with a 3 1/2-length, wire-to-wire score in her career debut on Jan. 26. This time, the filly bred by Ed Seltzer, Beverly Anderson and Joe and Helen Barbazon broke slowly and was seventh after a quarter of a mile. But Franklin sent her up five wide on the turn and Nymue’s Treasure responded with a strong burst through the lane, drawing off by 1 1/2 lengths at the wire.
