                                Purse $300.000
                           Three Year Olds Fillies

1st Coldpack, trained by John Henry

Well my pick to run second in here ending getting the big win against some very nice fillies and she has now made it two grades stakes wins in a row. She ran a really good race by stalking the pace and then pouncing on the leaders to take the win by a nose. She ran in 1:22.03 and earned $180.000 for the win.

2nd Dolphins Bay, trained by Jokerjoes

Well the one who I probably gave the least chance to win the race tried to get the money and really proved me wrong. She ran a helluva race to only get beat a nose by Coldpack who’s a grade one winner. She ran what I would say the best race of her life and she almost got a big graded stakes win.

3rd Prima Dona, trained by D J C Racing Stables

The runner from the wizards barn also ran a very good race to end up dead heating for third but she definitely ran a good race. She sat about midpack and came with a rally but couldn’t make up enough ground to win and ended up getting beat by half of a length. She ran a very respectable race.

3rd Rented Mule, trained by Angelos Stable

This filly also ran a very good race to dead heat for third with Prima Dona. She also say about midpack and both of them came rolling together and both ran with each other just about the whole way down the stretch. She ran very good and her owner shouldn’t be disappointed at all with her.

Summary

Well Coldpack is on a roll right now getting her second graded stakes win in a row and she beat a pretty tough field in this race also. She ran a very big race and just got there to win by a nose which Dolphins Bay gave her all she could handle. Congratulations to Coldpack and owner John Henry.
