The best three-year-old trotting fillies in North America will be showcased Saturday night in the Elegantimage Stakes and trainer Bob Stewart is looking for a large payday.
After winning the 2002 event with double-millionaire Cameron Hall, Stewart is back with her daughter, Ultimate Cameron. The Yankee Glide miss was victorious in her division of the Casual Breeze last Friday at Mohawk Racetrack for driver Trevor Richie and owner Diamond Creek Farm.
Ultimate Cameron earned $224,394 last year thanks in large part to her second-place finish behind Poof Shes Gone in the $617,880 Breeders Crown final, and Bob Stewart remains very optimistic of her chances in the Elegantimage. He’s counting on the filly to enjoy a big three-year-old campaign.
“Through the course of last year she would always race well, but never great. She never had the killer instinct that her mother (Cameron Hall) had until the Breeders Crown final were she finished a very strong second to Poof Shes Gone,” Stewart told WEG’s media department.
“Coming into this year I thought we had a good filly. She trained very well all winter and I certainly like our chances now after her victory in the Casual Breeze. She’s beginning to resemble hermother,” Stewart commented. (WEG)
