Sponsored by: Malathaat, winner of the 147th running of the Kentucky Oaks for Shadwell Stable, trainer Todd Pletcher and jockey John Velazquez “Excellent.” That was trainer Todd Pletcher s all-encompassing answer to the question of Malathaat s condition on the morning after her gutsy run and neck victory in the Grade I Longines Kentucky Oaks Saturday at Churchill Downs. With a national television audience taking it in, the well-made daughter of Curlin overcame early troubles, took rider John Velazquez s cues at all points and then dug down deep to win a photo finish and $713,000 in the 147th “Run for the Lilies.” The Shadwell Stable miss now is a perfect five for five in her brief racing career, has three graded stakes on her ledger and is well on her way to millionaire status ($953,000) with a very bright future ahead.
