Flavien Prat hatte dieses Rennen schon mit Splendora (2025) gewonnen. Mit diesem Sieg kamen der Jockey und Trainer Chad C Brown gemeinsam auf 6 Gruppe-1-Erfolge in dieser Saison.
Ways And Means is out of the black-type winner Strong Incentive (Warrior's Reward). Her half-siblings include Surge Capacity (Flintshire), winner of the Grade 1 Matriarch Stakes, and Highly Motivated (Into Mischief), winner of the Grade 3 Monmouth Cup.
Second dam G G's Dolly (Comic Strip) won the Listed Prairie Rose Stakes and produced seven other winners, the best of them Hall Pass (Freedom Child), a five-time winner who was twice Listed-placed.
Third dam Parfait (Kingmambo) was placed five times and produced nine other winners.
Strong Incentive has an unraced 2-year-old filly by Good Magic named Alpe d'Huez and a yearling colt by Into Mischief, and she was covered again by Into Mischief for 2027.
