The Nassau Stakes – GII
5/30/20
WO Race 6 1M – Turf
Purse $175.000
Three Year Olds and Up Fillies and Mares
1st Hash Tag Hash, trained by Estero Farms
Third win for this filly and she keeps up her reputation of never running out of the top two in her short career. She stalked the pace and went on with it nicely down the stretch to get the win in 1:33.18 and also $105.000 to the bankroll.
2nd Lovin Spoonful, trained by Nakamura Stables
A very good second from this filly as she tried to take them gate to wire but could not hold off the winner. She fought hard though and held on for second and ended up only getting beat by half a length in the end.
3rd Too Scared To Party, trained by Martyparty
Just like usual she used the tactic of closing from the back of pack but she moved up behind the leaders about halfway through the race. Pace was the race as she was their from the half mile mark to wire.
4th Perfection Only, trained by TwinTowers Racing
Also part of the first half of runners from the half mile pole to the wire as she was fourth from there and finished fourth rounding out the superfecta. She was only beaten two lengths in the end.
Summary
Oddly run race as they pretty much finished as they were lined up at the half mile pole. The winner did have to run down the leader to win but she did it nicely and won in a nice time. Congratulations to Hash Tag Hash, trained by Estero Farms.
