Given a 6-1 chance to find the winner’s circle for the first time in Saturday’s GI Frizette Stakes, Scottish Lassie (McKinzie–Bodebabe, by Bodemeister) ran more like the piping hot favorite as she blasted through the stretch to cross the wire a much-the-best winner, in the process punching her ticket to the GI Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies at Del Mar.
Settled in a stalking second as Social Fortress (Social Inclusion) cut out early splits of :22.81 and :46.20, the OBS March graduate challenged for the lead straightening for home, quickly pulled clear and was uncontested as she crossed the wire a double-digit winner. Favored Snowyte (Good Magic) closed to be second while the pacesetter held on for third. This is the 11th winner for freshman sire McKinzie.
