Multiple Graded Stakes Winner Sconsin Tops Roxelana

LOUISVILLE, KY – Lloyd Madison Farm’s multiple graded stakes-winning filly Sconsin headlines a field of six fillies and mares that were entered in Saturday’s $110,000 Roxelana Overnight Stakes at Churchill Downs.

The 6 1/2-furlong Roxelana will go as Race 10 of 11 with a post time of 5:26 PM (all times Eastern). First post is 12:45 PM.

Sconsin, a 4-year-old homebred daughter of Include, won the $150,000 Winning Colors (G3) four weeks ago beneath the Twin Spires. The Greg Foley trainee finished second behind Gamine in the $500,000 Derby City Distaff (G1) on the undercard of the Kentucky Derby (G1). Overall, Sconsin sports a stout record of 12-4-3-1 with purse earnings of $546,512.

Current Churchill Downs leading rider Tyler Gaffalione has the return mount and will break from post 5.

Trained by Neil Pessin, Bell’s the One is searching for her first victory in her 5-year-old campaign. She finished second behind Kimari in the $300,000 Madison (G1) in early April and fourth in this year’s Derby City Distaff. Corey Lanerie has the mount from post 4.

Another accomplished mare that was entered in the Roxelana is Whitham Thoroughbreds’ multiple Grade 3 winner Four Graces.

The now 4-year-old daughter of Majesticperfection will make her seasonal debut from post 3 with Julien Leparoux in the saddle.
