The big mare made us proud again in what shaped up to be an outstanding race Saturday at Saratoga in the G1 TVG Coaching Club American Oaks. In a field of the nation’s top five three-year-old fillies, Plum Pretty entered the gate as the favorite and almost took the race wire-to-wire when It’s Tricky made a last minute push to capture the victory only by 3/4 lengths. Plum Pretty ran a strong race and placed an impressive second, with the rest of the field no closer than 6 1/2 lengths behind her. The race helped determine the standing of this year’s three-year-old fillies, and Plum Pretty remains a top competitor amongst some very talented fillies.
