LEXINGTON, Ky. – Dayatthespa was scheduled to return to New York by charter flight Sunday, the day after the filly recorded her fifth straight victory with an emphatic two-length, front-running score in the Grade 1, $400,000 Queen Elizabeth II Challenge Cup over the Keeneland turf.
Dayatthespa earned a 92 Beyer Speed Figure in the QE II and could run next in the Grade 1 Matriarch at Betfair Hollywood Park on Nov. 25 “if she trains the way I’d like her to, and if I feel she’s up to all that trip out west entails,” according to trainer Chad Brown.
