ALWAYS SHOPPING (f, 3, Awesome Again–Stopshoppingmaria, by More Than Ready) secured a spot in the starting gate for the GI Kentucky Oaks with a win in Saturday’s GII Gazelle S. at Aqueduct. Failing to hit the mark in maiden special weight company in her first three outings, she earned her diploma in style with a victory in the track-and-trip Busanda S. last time Feb. 3. Given a 7-2 chance to repeat here, the Repole homebred pressed pacesetting GII Demoiselle S. romper Positive Spirit (Pioneerof the Nile) from second through a leisurely first half-mile in :50.09. Drawing even with the leader on the backstretch, the bay veered in a bit, brushing her foe in early stretch, but was quickly straightened out by Manny Franco and sent forward, edging clear to score in 1:52.91. Positive Spirit held second and the winner’s stablemate Off Topic (Street Sense) was third. Lifetime Record: 5-2-2-0.

O/B-Repole Stable (KY); T-Todd Pletcher.
