JFT: Tapitsfly outgames Rose Catherine
By Alan Shuback
Daily Racing Form, November 06, 2009
Tapitsfly outgamed Rose Catherine in the $1 million Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf on Friday at Santa Anita as the European favorites Lillie Langtry and Junia Tepzia failed to show any sparkle in finishing well out of the money.
Robby Albarado was content to follow Rose Catherine's quick early pace on the Dale Roman-trained Tapitsfly in second. Rose Catherine went three lengths clear entering the backstretch as Tapitsfly cruised up into a perfect position. A daughter of Tapit, Tapitsfly ($21.60) inched closer approaching the far turn, engaged the pacesetter at the eighth pole, and drew clear for a half-length victory.

Race Comments: TAPITSFLY close up stalking the pace off the rail, bid alongside the pacesetter under urging in the stretch, gained the advantage in deep stretch and gamely prevailed. ROSE CATHERINE sped to the early lead, set the pace inside, fought back under urging in the stretch, had the rider lose the whip past midstretch but continued gamely to the wire. HOUSE OF GRACE angled in and settled outside a rival, split horses in midstretch and gained the show toward the inside. HATHEER between foes early, stalked outside a rival then off the rail into the stretch and could not offer the necessary late kick. JUNGLE TALE angled in and settled off the pace inside, came out into the stretch and in upper stretch and improved position. LA NEZ pulled her way along and angled in nearing the first turn, chased inside, came out on the second turn and three deep into the stretch and lacked the needed rally. POTOSINA also pulled early then stalked inside, came a bit off the rail on the backstretch, angled out into the stretch and weakened. LILLIE LANGTRY (IRE) pulled her way between foes and was in tight approaching the first turn, chased between rivals most of the way to the stretch, lugged in some and steadied in midstretch and could not offer the necessary response. SMART SEATTLE saved ground stalking the pace, was between horses in midstretch and weakened. LISA'S KITTEN angled in and raced unhurried alongside a rival, came out in the stretch and did not rally. ELUSIVE GALAXY (IRE) pulled her way along to chase the pace inside, was in a bit tight off heels into the second turn, saved ground throughout and lacked a response in the stretch. JUNIA TEPZIA (IRE) broke a bit slowly, pulled outside rivals then chased three deep, came four wide into the stretch and weakened. |
