Gaffalione sent Averly Jane after the leader at the head of the stretch and then drew clear at the 1/16 pole.“She’s a naturally fast filly, most of (Ward’s) horses are,” Gaffalione said. “She jumped out well, but she just got out-sprinted for the lead. We didn’t want to get into a speed duel. I was able to get to the outside. When my filly hit the lane, she gave me everything she had.”The victory was worth $91,140 and increased Averly Jane’s earnings to $127,140 with 2 wins in 2 starts. She is a Kentucky-bred daughter of Midshipman out of the Richter Scale mare Sh Sh Shakin.Credit: Coady PhotographySent off as the heavy favorite off a maiden victory at Keeneland, Averly Jane returned $3, $2.40 and $2.20.“Nothing to it; she was training good, she was doing good, and she ran good,” said assistant trainer Blake Heap. “Didn’t tell the jock a thing; he saw the videos and he knew what to do.”Vodka N Water rallied for second under Ricardo Santana Jr. and paid $3.60 and $2.80 with Bohemian Frost paying $2.80 to show under Gerardo Corrales.
