Sent into the lead by Brian Hernandez, Jr. turning into the stretch, the dark bay went through her gears in the final furlong and a half and had a cushion of five lengths on the wire over Etna (Volatile).Kentucky Oaks-winning owner Joel Politi purchased dam Littlestitious for $190,000 at the 2019 Keeneland September sale and raced her to three victories, including a pair of listed stakes.
