2007 Breeders' Cup Grand National Steeplechase Day

Second place finisher Sweet Shani, the only mare in the field, came into the race off a fourth place finish in the Lonesome Glory(G1) at Belmont. The New Zealand bred stalked the pace in fifth on the outside of the course under jockey Xavier Aizpuru, made a bid for the lead at the top of the stretch, but was no match for the champ. The Jonathan Sheppard trainee improved her record to 5 wins, 4 seconds and 5 thirds in 26 starts, earning $205,073 for owner Calvin Houghland.
