Enola Gray tops probables for Betty Grable Stakes
Benoit & Associates Enola Gray, making her first start on turf, wins the California Distaff by a length under Tyler Baze.
The once-beaten Enola Gray heads the likely cast for the $100,000 Betty Grable Stakes on Sunday at Del Mar.
Enola Gray has won four times in five starts, most recently in the California Distaff on the downhill turf course at Santa Anita. She also owns a win in the Fleet Treat Stakes here during the summer meet.
The Betty Grable, a seven-furlong race for female sprinters, is expected to draw a field of five to seven, including Barbara Beatrice, Chao Chom, Harlington’s Rose, My Fiona and, possibly, Filly On Fire and Plane Lucky.
Chao Chom, trained by Gary Stute, worked three furlongs in 35.80 seconds on Thursday at Santa Anita.
