Antonoe Wins Just a Game Stakes at Belmont Park
The $700,000 G1 Just a Game Stakes was run Saturday, June 10 at Belmont Park in Elmont, New York - a one mile turf test for fillies and mares four years old and upward. Juddmonte Farms' 3-1 co-second choice Antonoe made quite a statement in the race, coming from last to post a three quarters of a length victory - her first ever G1 score. Pace setter Sassy Little Lila finished second in the field of seven at 8-1 odds with Dickinson, who was sent off at 7-2 odds another nose back in third. The order of finish was completed by Harmonize, 2016 Just a Game winner and other 3-1 second choice Celestine, Prize Exhibit, and 2-1 favorite Roca Rojo who came in a disappointing last of seven.
