1 1/16 Mile Turf Stake Purse $150.000 Fillies And Mares Four-Year-Old And Upward. At GP

1st      Aime La Nature                         Our Athletes                  4-1 (HRP) 3-1 (SRF)

Class made the difference as Aime La Nature dropped down from her usual Graded adventures and scored a handy one length win over this small field. She came out of the gate second and stayed in touch with the leader until the stretch, then took the lead at her convenience and pulled away under a hand ride.

2nd      Rusti             Maxmillion Farm           *6-5 (HRP) 6-1 (SRF)

Rusti took the lead out of the gate and opened a two-length lead and carried the lead comfortably to the stretch but could not resist the winner down the lane.

3rd      Childe Girl             Nakamura Stables                6-5 (HRP) *3-1 (SRF)

Childe Girl trailed throughout to the stretch and closed strongly but mistimed.

4th     Charlenes Way                 Maxmillion Farm           11-1 (HRP) 7-2 (SRF)

Charlenes Way stalked the lead to the stretch, closed determinedly to be in the photo for third.
