Carriage Trail Wins Juddmonte Spinster Stakes at Keeneland & An Entry In The Breeders’ Cup Ladies’ Classic Field

Carriage Trail, ridden by jockey Kent Desormeaux, wins the $500,000 Juddmonte Spinster Stakes at Keeneland in record time on Sunday, October 5.

As part of the 2008 Breeders’ Cup Challenge, Keeneland’s Juddmonte Spinster Stakes winner Carriage Trail automatically becomes part of the Breeders’ Cup field for the October 24 Breeders’ Cup Ladies’ Classic, formerly known as Breeders’ Cup Distaff, to be run on Oak Tree at Santa Anita.

SBG Global RacebookTrained by Shug McGaughey, Carriage Trail covered 1 1/8 miles in 1:46.77, the fastest clocking since Polytrack was installed in 2006. Carriage Trail paid $9.20, $5 and $3.40. Rallying from last place to finish second, Model, under jockey Calvin Borel, returned $9.20 and $6. Another 1 1/4 lengths back in third, Rosinka, with jockey Jeremy Rose aboard, paid $7.80 to show.

“She will drift out in her races a little bit,” said race horse trainer Shug McGaughey. “I talked to Kent about that in the paddock. Sometime it might have cost her, but she was in front and there wasn’t any sense in fooling with her.”

“I wasn’t going to hinder her by correcting her path,” said jockey Kent Desormeaux. “I just let her drift, and she was happy and she was going fast.”

It was the sixth win in 15 career starts for Carriage Trail, who is owned by Stuart Janney III and Phipps Stable. She earned $310,000 for the decisive win, increasing her lifetime earnings to $644,628.
