Eleven In For Legend From Limits Stakes

The tenth race on the card for this upcoming Saturday racing is the listed The Legend From Limits Stakes. The six and a half furlong sprint will be run over the dirt and is open to fillies and mares four years old and up. The weather has been chilly here in Florida so far this week, but has been free of rain. No rain appears to be in the forecast for the weekend either, so expect a fast dirt track at post time Saturday. A total of eleven fillies have drawn into this years race. Lets take a look at the competition.

Drawing the rail in the race will be Latefallen (Gators N Bears x Afleet x Danzig), who is out of the race-winning dam Shelleygram, and is owned by bluelights, owner of Bigrick Stables. The four year old chestnut filly has been fairly lightly raced throughout her career with a total of twenty lifetime starts. A little over half of these starts have resulted in wins, with eleven wins for the filly over the course of her career. All of these wins came over the dirt. Her most recent start came earlier this month in a six and a half furlong allowance caliber start in New Jersey where the filly broke out of the gate and settled behind the pacesetters in fourth. She began to pick off other horses early in the race and had taken control of the pace in the stretch, going on to win the race by one-fourth of a length with a speed figure of one hundred four. This Saturday will be the fillies first attempt at a stakes caliber race.
