Alexandrova turned over

[Pedigree Ann]

The lads on sportsradio said she got a terrible ride, dropped too far back in a shorter race (10f) than her best. Mandesha, winner of the Prix Vermeille over the course last out, winner of the Prix de l'Opera. This is a relatively new race since in the past females didn't have G1 races for themselves alone aside from the classics. Twenty years ago, all of these ladies would have run in the Arc itself.
