Monomoy Girl (3, f, Tapizar–Drumette, by Henny Hughes), who has crossed the wire in front in all six prior starts this term, made it seven straight with a rousing score in the GI Breeders’ Cup Distaff at Churchill Downs. Despite being DQ’d from the win in her latest in the Sept. 22 GI Cotillion S., Monomoy Girl was given plenty of support at the windows this time at 2-1 alongside the well-backed Abel Tasman (Quality Road). Close-up to Wonder Gadot (Medaglia d’Oro) through opening fractions of :23.39 and :47.57, Monomoy Girl overtook that rival at the quarter pole and was clear turning for home. In full flight in the lane, the chestnut proved best late, holding off the oncoming Wow Cat (Chi), who closed from last to just miss by a length. Midnight Bisou (Midnight Lute) rounded out the trifecta. Abel Tasman was up in contention early but faded late, finishing out of the money. Lifetime Record: 11-9-2-0; $3,054,750.
