My first Stakes winner of the year - Sugar Swirl, a sturdy chestnut mare, started the year in good form, finally landing her long over due Graded win. Her win came in the $100,000 First Lady Handicap (G3) on Sunday 14 January.
She was held up on the sloppy Gulfstream Park as Rgirldoesn'tbluff set the pace. Sugar Swirl was ridden by Javier Castellano, who angled her out on the turn as she found another gear. She gamely conquered her foes in good style and came home in 1.10.06 in the slop.
The pacesetter Rgirldoesn'tbluff held secon, comfortably clear of Bereba, who finished in third.
She is trained by Brian Lynch for Stronach Stables.
