Find Out Why At the Spa, now undefeated in 3 starts, is owned by the trio of Terry Lovingier (her breeder), Tom Beckerle, or Saul Carillo. Her victory pushed her bankroll to $164,580.“We’ve been training her in the morning to run like this; to come from behind, take a little dirt in her face,” Baze said. “I think she gets more aggressive when that happens. Today, I saw that hole (on the fence) and knew it was my only shot. My filly was up for it; there wasn’t much room there, but she got through. She ran like the horse I know she is. She doesn’t like to get beat.”Finishing second was William R. Peeples’ Drizella, while third, just a head back, was Lovingier, Madiha, or Navarro’s Madiha. At the Spa paid $8.20, $4.40, and $3.60 across the board. Drizella returned $7.20 and $5.40 and Madiha paid $9.60 to show.For veteran Baze, the score was his 39th stakes win at Del Mar. For trainer Jorge Periban, it was his first.“She showed me a lot today,” Periban said. “She showed that she can come from behind. Most of the time, she breaks in front. We had a few problems in the stretch, but we got lucky to get inside and get the money.”The conditioner said he was looking ahead to a possible start for his filly in the Grade I, $300,000 Del Mar Debutante on Sunday, September 5.
