Aqueduct: Princess Sweet wins twice in 4 days

David Grening|Nov 07, 2005

Princess Sweet entered the week an unraced 2-year-old. She ended it as an undefeated stakes winner.

Princess Sweet, who won a maiden race on Thursday, came right back on Sunday to win the $125,000 , one of four stakes on Aqueduct's card restricted to progeny of New York-based stallions.

Princess Sweet, a daughter of Precise End, romped to a 9 1/4-length maiden win on Thursday, running six furlongs in 1:11.59. Breaking from the outside post in the nine-horse field Sunday, Princess Sweet took over from dueling leaders No Reason and Little Miss Zip entering the far turn and zipped home an easy 4 3/4-length winner.

No Reason, who was steadied nearing the quarter pole, came back in deep stretch to nip Little Miss Zip by a nose for second.

Princess Sweet, owned by Whos Next Racing Team and trained by Linda Rice, ran six furlongs in 1:11.60 under Cornelio Velasquez and returned $8.90.

"I didn't have her fully cranked for her first race," Rice said. "I actually thought she would run a better race today than she did in her maiden race. This was too good of an opportunity to pass up. The filly has a lot of talent. We don't think she's going to have a long racing career. And because of that, we wanted to make sure we could get her stakes-placed while we could."

In other Stallion Stakes action at Aqueduct:

* Favored Classic Pack ($4.10) pulled away from Surfing Ian in deep stretch after dueling with that rival for more than five furlongs to win the $125,000 Great White Way Stakes for juveniles by 1 1/2 lengths.

Classic Pack, owned and bred by John T. Becker and trained by Mike Hernandez, ran six furlongs in 1:11.30 under Pablo Fragoso.

* Retribution, making his first start for trainer John Hertler, quickly assumed the front under Velasquez and rolled to a 3 1/4-length victory in the $100,000 Cormorant Stakes for colts and geldings. Unnerving chased the favored Retribution ($7) around the track, but settled for second, 1 1/4 lengths ahead of Red Down South.

Retribution, owned by the Our Canterbury Stables, covered one mile in 1:37.33.

* Champagne Ending made it 2 for 2 on turf as she sprinted to a clear early lead under Fragoso and never looked back, winning the $100,000 Perfect Arc by 6 3/4 lengths over Forbidden Sea.

Favored Champagne Ending ($6.10), owned by the Sovereign Stable and Gatsas Stables and trained by John Terranova, covered the mile in 1:36.95.
