In the 35th running of the Grade 3, $100,000 Tempted for 2-year-old fillies, Full Moon Blues was never challenged as she led almost every step under jockey Malcolm Franklin on the way to a 2 ¼-length win over Tap for Luck. Her time for the mile was 1:38.56. "She didn't break all that well, but no one else seemed anxious for the lead, and Malcolm was able to cruise on up there and dictate the pace," said Tim Tullock, Jr., who trains Full Moon Blues for Jeffrey Nielsen. Sent off as the 11-1 longshot in the field of five, Full Moon Blues returned $25 for a $2 win bet as she ran her record to 2-2-0 from four starts. Favored Dixie City was third, followed by Pinch Pie and Doing Great.
