A And G’s Confusion, a world champion and Dan Patch award winner last year, only had three wins in 15 starts coming into the $610,000 Breeders Crown 3-year-oldfilly pace. But with David Millerr aboard, she sprinted past the field in deep stretch and scored a 1:51 victory over Tug River Princes with Native Bride third. The winner was the leader out of the gait, but relinquished the lead to Btwynyurheartnmine at the :28 quarter. Knock Three Times rushed up to take the lead at the :56 half ans was still on top past the three quarter in 1:22.4 and into the stretch. That’s when Tug River Princess and John Campbell and Native Bride with Brian Sears made their run at the lead, but they weren’t good enough to hold off A And G’sconfusion who was four wide down the lane to secure the victory. “I left the gait cause I figured if I took off I’d be fourth or fifth-over again,” said Miller. “So, I left and turned Timmy (Tetrick on Btwynyurheartnmine) lose and I wasn’t too concerned when John came with Tug River Princess, but I was starting to get the shuffle there and in the last turn I found a seam to get out.” Owned by the A & G Stables and trained by Casie Coleman, A And G’sconfusion scored her ninth lifetime victory in 26 starts and increased her 2008 earnings to $494,257 and $1,311,277 life.
