Belmont Park
Undefeated Sower headed for Victory Ride
Barbara D. Livingston Sower paid $11 with her victory in the Jersey Girl Stakes at Belmont Park on Sunday.
ELMONT, N.Y. – Sower, the 4 3/4-length winner of Sunday’s $150,000 Jersey Girl Stakes, will be pointed to the Grade 3, $150,000 Victory Ride Stakes at Belmont on July 8, trainer Linda Rice said.
Sower remained unbeaten in three starts with her front-running victory in the Jersey Girl. That was a step up for her following two victories in Maryland.
“I was really very pleased and very impressed the way she handled the competition in the Jersey Girl,” Rice said. “We’ll move on to the next one, which is a Grade 3, which is significant for a filly, and the timing’s good.”
Depending how things go in the Victory Ride, Sower could be a candidate for the Grade 1 Test at Saratoga on Aug. 4.
