The $2 million Emirates Airline Filly and Mare Turf (G1) features older fillies and mares at 1 3/8 miles around 3 turns of the turf course. Argentina led the field down the backstretch and around the final turn getting the mile in 1:44.60, but tired soon after. Lahudood, who raced in traffic in fourth early, surged to the front opening up a 2 length lead with a furlong to go. She was all out to hold off late-charging Honey Ryder to win by 3/4 length in 2:22.75. It was just a neck back to favorite Passage of Time in third.
