X-Men Racing IV, Madaket Stables and SF Racing’s Clicquot (Quality Road) made it three wins in a row while capturing Saturday’s GIII Indiana Oaks. The even-money favorite raced under a tight hold in third through an opening quarter in :23.18. Locked and loaded back a spot into fourth approaching the quarter pole, she made her move in between horses at the top of lane and blasted off from there to win going away by four lengths over Top (Army Mule).
A debut sixth as the even-money favorite at Gulfstream Mar. 1, she graduated by six lengths going seven furlongs at second asking at Keeneland Apr. 17. She added an optional claimer at Churchill Downs May 31, her first attempt around two turns.
