The Record
Keystone Bacall appears in the surviving Plainridge programs across the 2004 season, with 1 start for which the official chart records a finishing position. One of those produced a win, and the horse finished in the first three on 1 occasion altogether.
The fastest mile recorded here is 2:00.3, set on Tuesday, August 3, 2004. A harness time is written in minutes, seconds and fifths, so the final digit is a fifth of a second rather than a hundredth. On a track of this size like Plainridge a horse turns four times in a mile, which costs ground against the bigger tracks and makes reading one mile against another misleading.
The winner's line in the chart gives the breeding as DONERAIL out of YANKEE BACALL, herself by SIERRA KOSMOS. Harness pedigrees are quoted in that order — sire, dam, then the dam's own sire — because the maternal grandsire carries much of the weight in judging a standardbred family.
The classes Keystone Bacall was entered in run to NW200PS. These are condition races rather than claiming events, so eligibility rested on money already won rather than on a posted purchase price.
The drivers who sat behind Keystone Bacall most often were James Marohn Jr (1). Driver changes matter more in harness racing than the bare numbers suggest, because the same horse can be driven for early speed or held for a late quarter depending on who holds the lines.

The shortest price in the recovered charts is 2.90 to one. Odds are the closing figures printed on the chart, so they reflect what the pool decided at the off, not a forecast.
