The $100,000 G3 Adoration Stakes was run Sunday, May 7 at Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, California - a 1 1/16 mile dirt test for fillies and mares four years old and upward. Sheikh Mohammed bin Khalifa al Maktoum's overwhelming 1-5 favorite Vale Dori kept an impressive roll going as she won her sixth straight start - this time by just a half length over the game up-and-comer, 5-2 second choice Skye Diamonds who finished a quality second. 8-1 shot Sensitively was another 9 3/4 lengths back in third while Lady Tapit and Autumn Flower completed the order of finish. Bellamentary and Faithfully scratched.
