The Todd Pletcher trained Speightstown earned his favorite status from the betting public by registering a front running win in this Grade II sprint. The victory makes it three straight for the son of Gone West, including graded wins in The Artax Handicap at Gulfstream Park and The Grade II Churchill Downs Handicap on Derby Day at Churchill Downs. Jockey John Velazquez gave his mount a pat on the shoulder as they crossed the finish line.
