A $120,000 Ocala purchase in March, Cousins Lew sat off Don Jaun (cq) Con and I Dream of Genius, who set sizzling fractions of 20.97 and 44.48 in the five-furlong race for 2-year-olds. Cousins Lew moved into contention three wide around the turn and wore down the pacesetters in the lane.

Last time they met, Sweet Talker got a perfect trip and made a big lead hold up late. This time, Rich in Spirit turned the tables on Sweet Talker, grinding past her in the final furlong to win the $225,000 , reversing their one-two finish in the May 6 Edgewood Stakes.
