She was breezing really nice.”An $80,000 Fasig-Tipton Midlantic 2-year-old just a few months ago, Ground Support was bought by NBS Stables and John Ballantyne. Ground Support marks Army Mule's second New York graded winner, joining 2023 GI H. Allen Jerkens Memorial Stakes victor One in Vermillion. Champion Equine bred Ground Support in Florida after buying her dam, Arch Support, for $40,000 at the Fasig-Tipton Kentucky Winter Mixed Sale in 2021. She hasn't produced a foal since Ground Support, but has been bred to Verifying for 2026. GROUND SUPPORT upsets the G2 Miss Grillo at 12-1 under @ABeschizza for trainer @kelseyjdanner.
