Breeders Cup 2013 - Juvenile Fillies




Well it was an auspicious start to the day in the $2M Juvenile Fillies. Bob Baffert's Secret Compass went down with a broken ankle. The winner She's A Tiger was disqualified and placed second for a bump late in the stretch. It opened up the race for a 30-1 shot Ria Antonia to win it. She was purchased for just $9,000 as a yearling. Rosalind finished third. All three girls were great great granddaughters of Northern dancer.
