I was impressed that she dug in and still carried on in the Oaks. She raced very well. We were really proud of her and really happy with her performance. A nice horse beat her.”The Ontario-bred launched her career with a pair of starts last August at the Toronto oval, both yielding fourth-place results. Emmeline concluded her 2-year-old campaign with a third at 57/1 in the 1 1/16-mile main track Princess Elizabeth Stakes.Her current 3-race runner-up run began with her 3-year-old debut on June 19.“We’ll just keep trying,” said Mattine. “She’s still a maiden, but we’re just so proud of her. She was stakes-placed at 2 and she’s stakes-placed at 3. You can never complain about any horse that tries, at any level. Nice horses have beaten her, too. Let’s give them credit. She’s a very-laid back filly in the barn, just very classy. We’re very happy to have her.”Emma-Jayne Wilson, in the midst of a strong season, won the 2010 edition of the Bison City with Free Fee Lady and the 2015 running with Brooklynsway.
