Bio
Early On finished in the top three in two of three starts as a 2-year-old in 2024 without a win. The Union Rags filly broke through with a victory when stretching out in distance in her 3-year-old debut, powering to a 5 ¼-length runaway victory in a maiden race Feb. 5, 2025, at Gulfstream Park.
Trainer Saffie Joseph Jr. tried Early On next on the Kentucky Oaks trail in the $250,000 Virginia Oaks, and she finished powerfully for second behind winner Fondly, beaten by a half-length in her stakes debut.

Early On shipped north to Aqueduct for her final prep race for the 2025 Longines Kentucky Oaks and dueled for the lead in the $200,000 Gazelle Stakes. She fought valiantly to the finish line but came up just short when beaten by a nose by Ballerina d’Oro.
Early On was produced by the winning Distorted Humor mare Sally O’Brien and hails from the family that also produced fellow Kentucky Oaks starter Five G as well as 1987 Belmont Stakes winner Bet Twice.
