SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. - Havre de Grace came out of her victory over males in Saturday’s Grade 1 Woodward Stakes in good order and will more than likely make her next start in the Grade 1, $350,000 Beldame Stakes against females on Oct. 1 at Belmont Park, trainer Larry Jones said Sunday.
Havre de Grace won the Woodward by 1 1/4 lengths over Suburban winner and Whitney runner-up Flat Out. In becoming the second female to win the Woodward - Rachel Alexandra was the other - Havre de Grace ran 1 1/8 miles in 1:49.18 and earned a career-best 111 Beyer Speed Figure.
