The 3-1 second choice trailed the field down the backstretch under jockey Julien Leparoux, picked up the pace on the turn, then passed the tiring pacesetter Sharp Susan at the top of the lane to get third beaten 2 1/2 lengths. The Christophe Clement trainee improved her record to 9 wins, 0 seconds, and 4 thirds in 15 starts, earning $872,255 for owner-breeder Virginia Kraft Payson.
