Sweet Reason Wins Test Stakes at Saratoga Race Course
Las Vegas, NV - The $500,000 Grade 1 Longines Test Stakes took place at Saratoga Race Course in Saratoga Springs, New York in a busy Saturday, August 2. 2-1 favorite Sweet Reason proved to be too much for the field of 10 three year old fillies wining by an impressive 5 3/4 lengths. Sent off at 15-1 odds, Miss Behaviour held off the fast-closing 25-1 shot Little Alexis for second by a nose, with pacesetter Fiftyshadesofgold fading to fourth. Sweet Whiskey, Thank You Marylou, Tea Time, Bird Maker, Southern Honey, and Street Story completed the order of finish. Princess Violet and Red Velvet scratched.
