Grace under pressure!
We’re a little late to the party, we know, but it’s not TOO late to celebrate Princess Grace’s stunning victory in the $200,000 G2 Mrs. Revere stakes at Churchill Downs over the weekend for owners John and Susan Moore.
Given a peach of a ride by Florent Geroux, Princess Grace was perfectly positioned to strike down the stretch, which she did in devastating fashion, passing the post nearly three lengths to the good.
This 3-year-old daughter of Karaknotie is now 3 from 4, having finished second last time out in the G3 Pin Oak Valley View Stakes. According to her red-hot trainer, Princess Grace still has improvement in her, given how lightly raced she is.
“I’m over the moon with her performance,” says Stidham. “She’s only had four runs her entire career, and so, to go and do that over the weekend is pretty special. Hats of the the great work my fine staff have done with her, and of course, a big thanks to her owners who have been so patient. Great to get a such a valuable win for them.”
