TRA & TSD American Champion Two-Year-Old Filly (1968) |
Process Shot (foaled 1966 in Florida) was an American Champion racehorse. Owned and bred by Elberon Farm, she descended from her sire Restless Wind out of a Determine mare named Possessed. Process Shot is probably best remembered for her win in the 1968 Black-Eyed Susan Stakes on May 16, 1969.
As a two-year-old, Process Shot won eight of nine races over eight months, including six stakes races. She broke her maiden in May 1968 and wheeled back to win her second race in an allowance race at Philadelphia Park in Pennsylvania in June. In July, she won the Polly Drummond Stakes at Delaware Park Racetrack at five furlongs in a time of 0:58.40. The first weekend of August, she won the 5.5 furlong Colleen Stakes at Monmouth Park in New Jersey. In late August, Process Shot won the Adirondack Stakes at Saratoga Race Course on Travers Stakes weekend in 1:10.40 under jockey Chuck Baltazar. A month later, in late September, she traveled to Chicago, Illinois, and captured the Arlington-Washington Lassie Stakes title in the six furlong dirt race. At the end of autumn 1968, Process Shot won the Mermaid Stakes at Atlantic City Race Course. In the last race of her freshman campaign, she placed second to Predictable in the $125,000 mile and a sixteenth Selima Stakes at Laurel Park Racecourse in Maryland. Process Shot was named American Champion Two-Year-Old Filly for 1968 by Turf & Sports Digest magazine and the Thoroughbred Racing Association. The rival Daily Racing Form award was won by Gallant Bloom.
