In her first start since capturing the GI Resolute Racing Madison Stakes at Keeneland by a nose Apr. 4, ECLATANT (f, 4, Into Mischief–Downside Scenario, by Scat Daddy) got on the winning side of another photo finish Saturday, pushing past Foie Gras (Volatile) to win the GII Chicago Stakes at Churchill Downs.Boxed in on the rail up the backstretch as Lotsandlotsofcandy (Twirling Candy) and Usha (Tiz the Law) worked through fractions of :22.56 and :45.17, the 3-5 favorite had to slip out from behind that wall of frontrunners at the quarter pole. Foie Gras had gotten first jump to her inside but needed the line as Eclatant began to wear that rival down inside the sixteenth pole. The pair hit the wire together but Eclatant surged perfectly to win the bob.Evanescence (Munnings) finished up third as Usha faded inside to seventh. The final time for the seven furlongs was 1:22.62.The GII Chicago Stakes is one of two Breeders' Cup Dirt Dozen races featured for the GI Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Sprint.
