STONEGATE

Finish: 4th by 3

A Kentucky-based 3-year-old filly making her California debut vs. older males in a turf marathon, she ran well with a ground-saving trip. Tough next out vs. 3-year-old fillies.

MRAZEK

Last race: Aug. 2, 7th
Finish: 5th by 2

First start in nearly two years, this Cal-bred stakes winner pressed a sizzling pace and did not tire until deep stretch in this second-level-allowance turf sprint. This was a sharp comeback.

SEA SENSATION

Finish: 5th by 2 3/4
Beyer: 68
Favored to win this starter-allowance turf mile, this improving 3-year-old Cal-bred filly was caught four wide from start to finish. She can be followed in a similar two-turn grass race.

BELLAFINA

Finish: 1st by 4 1/4

Up in class after a runner-up debut, this 2-year-old maiden filly blazed to an impressive front-running victory in the Grade 2 Sorrento. Set fast fractions (21.82 and 45.25 seconds), widened late, emerged as one of the elite juvenile fillies in California. Bred to run on, bright future.
