Make it three in a row, and The Green Card saw it, the whole time…  Lennon, owned by Arindel,  has been using his speed to just run Alw fields into the ground.  Now, add a graded stakes to that philosophy as the 5yo gelding lasted by a quarter length, making every call a winning one and taking the Palos Verdes Stakes (GIII) on Saturday afternoon.  The final running time was 1:08.62 for the six panels.  Retaliate battled late down the inside, and was gaining, but just couldn’t get there, taking the second spot by a length over 21/1 shot Be Lucky in third, just a head in front of another long odds horses, Fionas Miracle (25/1) taking the minor money.  Five lengths covered the field of eleven.
