Graded stakes winner Lydgate sired his first winner when his son Bon Ami Pete won Sept. 24 at Retama Park in his initial start. The colt won the five-furlong race by 4 3/4 lengths in :58.85. He races for breeder/trainer Shawn Davis in partnership with John J. Smith.

A Louisiana-bred out of the Hey Rob mare Holly D,, Bon Ami Pete is a half-brother to unbeaten multiple stakes winner Handsomchamp.

Lydgate (Pulpit—Mariuka, by Danzig) stands at Jay Adcock’s Red River Farms near Coushatta, La. His 2009 fee was $2,000.
