In a photo finish that took the stewards several minutes to decipher, the GI Jenny Wiley finished in a thrilling dead heat between EXPENSIVE QUEEN (m, 5, Lope de Vega {Ire}–Witches Brew {Ire}, by Duke of Marmalade {Ire}) and SEGESTA (m, 5 Ghostzapper–Antone, by First Defence).In a tale of two trips, the mares broke from opposite ends of the gate but ran the race in close proximity to one another for much of the opening action. Frontrunner Aussie Girl (Ire) (Starspangledbanner {Aus}) had 3-2 favorite Segesta right off her flank in second while 5-2 shot Expensive Queen rode the rail in third through fractions of :23.10 and 47.46.Segesta looked to have a dream run at the top of the lane as the speed threw in the towel, hitting the front under Flavien Prat inside the furlong pole. Expensive Queen, stuck in behind horses, had to work her way through and found just the seam she needed along the fence to burst through and engage the favorite who was now sandwiched with Medoro (Honor Code) to her outside. In a grinding effort through the final strides, Expensive Queen just drew even with Segesta in a last-gasp bob to complete the dead heat.Lifetime Records: Segesta: 12-5-4-0; Expensive Queen: 12-5-2-0.Segesta: O/B Juddmonte; T-Chad Brown.
