The Reigning Breeders' Cup Sprint Queen Doesn't Miss a Step

Spendora, a five-year-old mare by Audible out of Miss Freeze (by Frost Giant), took the Grade 2 Fasig-Tipton Locust Grove Stakes in a decision that never looked close. She arrived already carrying the sport's top prize in her division, last year's Grade 1 Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Sprint, and this result reads as confirmation of that standing rather than a new one. In a division where six furlongs rarely leaves room for command, she made the distance look like hers alone.
