The diminutive four-year-old, a winner of two Grade 1 races in Cape Town's summer season, finished 1.75 lengths behind red-hot 1/5 favourite Maman Joon in the Violet Stakes, a $100 000 (about R1.8 million) feature at Monmouth Park racecourse in New Jersey.
Racing in the well-known blue and white silks of Gaynor Rupert's Drakenstein Stud, Beach.
Bomb (9/2) was positioned midway in the six-horse field for most of the 1 700m trip, with Maman Joon loitering at the rear.
In the run-in, Maman Joon powered past all her rivals to win comfortably. Beach Bomb and rider Jairo Rendon were caught a little flatfooted by the winner's finishing surge but picked it up to finish strongly.
