The gray filly sprinted to the early lead along the rail and tugged her way through an opening quarter in :21.56. She was 2 1/2 lengths in front after a half in :45.01 and strode home an easy three-length victress. She’s All Wolfe (Magna Graduate) closed late for second and Weekend Fun (More Than Ready) was third.
