It was a Canadian bred coming from way off the pace to win the $1M Filly and Mare Sprint. Northern Dancer's great great great granddaughter Wavell Avenue was 9th and 9 lengths back at the top of the stretch when she made her move, passing La Verdad at the wire. Taris was third. La Verdad and Taris were also descendants of our Dancer. You can see some of the Kentucky fall colours here, they were really impressive on our drive down to Florida this October.
