Bio
Great Island won her first stakes race on Feb. 6, 2021, winning the Suwannee River Stakes at Gulfstream Park by a head. She was the 1-5 favorite in the field of six, and recovered after a bad start to win the 1 1/8 mile race, which was taken off the turf due to heavy rain. She was ridden by Irad Ortiz Jr, for trainer Chad Brown.

On Jul. 17, Great Island won her first graded stakes race with a dramatic turn of foot. In the early stages of the Grade 3 WinStar Matchmaker Stakes at Monmouth Park, she rated well off the pace early on, and was in last place at the top of the stretch. However, she exploded down the stretch, and got up in the last few strides to win. Joel Rosario had the winning mount.
