The winner, a 5-year-old mare by Gemologist, was capturing the seventh win of her career and picked up a check for $49,320 from the $83,436 purse in the 1-mile test for fillies and mares, pushing her career bankroll to $407,742.

The race originally had six runners set to go, but two scratches Friday morning cut the field to four and eliminated show betting.

Paige Anne battled the winner the length of the stretch and just couldn’t hold on. Running third was Red Baron’s Barn or Vaya Con Suerte’s Harper’s Gallop.

Miss Bigly, the 2/5 favorite, paid $2.80 and $2.10. Paige Anne returned $3.00.

Time for the mile was 1:38.08. The winner was ridden by Juan Hernandez and is trained by Phil D’Amato.
