2008 Sword Dancer Invitational and Alabama Stakes

Grand Couturier (right) drew off to win the Sword Dancer (G1) for the second time with late closing Better Talk Now taking the place spot. Also on the card, Proud Spell dug in and wouldn't allow favorite Music Note to pass her down the stretch, winning the Alabama Stakes (G1) by a head. Get the results, charts, and photos here.
