Beldame Stakes
Round Pond resumed racing the following February and made her 2006 debut, an allowance race at Oaklawn Park, a winning one that she followed with another graded win- the Azeri Stakes. After the Azeri Stakes, Round Pond developed foot issues that kept her sidelined until late summer. To prep for the upcoming Breeders' Cup at Churchill Downs, Round Pond ran in the Molly Pitcher Stakes and Beldame Stakes, finishing second and third, respectively.
