And One More Time Leads Casse Trifecta In Natalma Stakes At Woodbine

[Wandering Eyes]

With a berth in the GI John Deere Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf on the line, And One More Time (Omaha Beach–Complicated, by Blame) had just enough in the final jump to win the GI Natalma Stakes at Woodbine on Saturday.

Facing a heavy favorite in Godolphin's Mountain Breeze (Ire) (Lope de Vega {Ire}), the Casse trainee went off as a 16-1 shot. Undaunted by the prospect after breaking her maiden at Saratoga Aug. 8, the filly rolled down the course in between a pair of stablemates in Nitrogen (Medaglia d'Oro) and Vixen (Vekoma). And One More Time proved best as she surged ahead of the latter to earn the ticket to Del Mar.

The final running time was 1:33.99.

Lifetime Record: 3-2-0-0. Sales History: FTSAUG '23 $750,000.

O-Live Oak Plantation; B-William Harrigan & Mike Pietrangelo (Ky); T-Mark Casse.
