No secret to the Saratoga bettors in her debut when winning impressively at odds of 3-5, Lady Eli once again justified her considerable hype with an absolutely electric performance in Sunday’s Grade 3 Miss Grillo Stakes at Belmont Park. Looking in command from the start, the undefeated daughter of Divine Park relaxed well in third before tipping out in the stretch and running away from her rivals with a devastating turn-of-foot en route to a facile 3-length score. Her win immediately catapulted her to the upper echelon of the two-year-old turf filly division and she will be a popular selection when making her next start in the Grade 1 $1,000,000 Breeders’ Cup Juveile Filly Turf at Santa Anita.
Congratulations and continued good fortune to owner Sheep Pond Partners, breeder Runnymede Farm and trainer Chad Brown with this superstar filly!
