The Empire Distaff seemed to be a good landing spot for Hot Summer after back to back disappointing races in the Alabama and the TC of America. The competition level would not be as strong, but still be strong enough. It would prove to be a great decision for trainer D J C Racing Stables as his filly picks up the victory in convincing fashion.
