Consumer Spending Bests Pizza Bianca at Aqueduct

[Wandering Eyes]

Klaravich Stables' Consumer Spending (f, 3, More Than Ready–Siempre Mia, by Scat Daddy) defeated returning GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf winner Pizza Bianca (Fastnet Rock {Aus}) to win the Memories of Silver S. at Aqueduct Sunday. Pizza Bianca, the 4-5 favorite, settled off a mild pace and Consumer Spending, at 7-1, sat just off the Breeders' Cup winner. Consumer Spending tracked as Pizza Bianca rolled up three wide on the far turn and engaged the favorite while four wide into the stretch. The two rivals went toe to toe before Consumer Spending put Pizza Bianca away late and inched clear to a 3/4-length victory.

Consumer Spending, a maiden winner over the Saratoga lawn last September, punched her ticket to the Breeders' Cup with a win in the Oct. 2 Selima S. at Laurel. She was a close-up sixth behind Pizza Bianca at Del Mar last November. Lifetime Record: 5-3-1-0.
