The GR III Santa Ysabel Stakes

[TJ]

The Champ is back....Songbird packs the weight today, but where did all these other horses come from. Do they know something we don't? In any case, it's worth 85 points across the board for a spot in the Kentucky Oaks. Below are the entries and PP's. TJ

She sure is a lovely horse to watch. Totally effortless, Smith was just sitting pretty the whole time. The fillies that went with her were gassed out. I do like how hard Land Over Sea tries.
